Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and flammable gas that can cause symptoms of headaches, dizziness, upset stomach, chest pain, and confusion.
CO is produced when a fuel source is burnt including from vehicles, small engines, stoves, lanterns, fireplaces, or furnaces. Detectors are readily available at most home improvement stores and it’s recommend to place one on every floor of the home, including the basement.
