🚨 CO Alarm Reminder! 🚨

The “Ber” months—September, October, November and December—aren’t far away, which means cooler weather and increased use of heating equipment are right around the corner. But don’t wait until fall to check your carbon monoxide (CO) alarms!

CO can be a threat year-round. Water heaters, furnaces, generators and other fuel-burning appliances can produce CO if they malfunction or aren’t properly vented.

🏠 Make sure you have CO alarms on every level of your home and near sleeping areas.
🔋 Test your alarms regularly and replace batteries as needed.
📅 Check the age of your alarms and replace them according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

A working CO alarm can alert you to a dangerous, invisible and odorless gas before it’s too late. Check your CO alarms today!
