The Dangers of Carbon Monoxide
August 21, 2014The technicians here at Summers & Zim’s take carbon monoxide very seriously.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that may take place in many types of heating systems that exist in our homes. When not properly maintained, your furnaces, boilers and some water heaters can begin to leak this gas into the surrounding rooms of your home, putting your family in danger. In fact, the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission reports that 170+ people die in our country every year from non-automotive CO poisoning while countless more are poisoned at non-fatal levels or are misdiagnosed.
All of our technicians are certified by the National Comfort Institute to tune up these types of equipment and test for CO leakage. The best way to have peace of mind and keep your family safe is to have a certified Summers & Zim’s technician visit your home and inspect your equipment.
