Car windows go up, le windows go down, furnaces go on. too often, the search leads?quite rally?to a dead end: deadly carhon loxide. ach year, according to the U.S. Public ilth Service, 900 Americans are killed heir homes by carlxm monoxide. More exposed to levels so dangerous that lical attention is required, arhon monoxide is created by combus i. When carbon-containing substances h as wood, coal and natural gas are ned, they produce relatively harmless 3on dioxide. Unless it's done under iratory conditions, combustion is iniplete. In addition to carbon dioxide, lbustion produces quantities of carbon loxide which increase dramatically h improperly vented appliances, i concentration of one part carbon noxide to 5,000 parts of air can duce a headache in a few hours. If the contains one percent carbon monoxexposure of only five minutes is lost always fatal. 'o make matters worse, carbon monoxnot only kills, it kills without warning ause it is invisible, odorless and teless. 'here are frightening examples: a lily of seven found dead in their beds, 'he cause? A clogged flue in the gas /e.

Look for holes, cracks, rust or connected parts. -Check the vent cap carefully. If the jports are rusted through, the vent cap y collapse and stop air passage, place worn or rusted parts right away. -If there is a clean-out door, he sure flue is clear of debris. Plugged chimts and rusted flues are common causes problems. -Make sure the chimney extends jve the highest point of your home. ?Window screening in flues or stuffed chimneys may keep out nesting birds squirrels, but can become blocked by >t. ?Check the operating condition of the nace. One indication that a gas pilot or rner is out of adjustment is a flickering How flame. A blue upright flame is rer. \nyone with doubts about a furnace's idition should call a reliable heating itractor for a safety check. ied Shop: 1st.
