Carbon Monoxide Detectors for Buffalo, NY

Everyone has heard about the poisonous gas called carbon monoxide, but what exactly is it, and why is it so dangerous? Carbon monoxide leaks into the home from improperly burning fuel that can come from wood fires, coal, propane, natural gas, and gasoline emissions. It's odorless, colorless, and tasteless, which makes it almost impossible to detect without a carbon monoxide alarm. Carbon monoxide is dangerous because it robs the body of oxygen, affecting the lung and brain tissue, causing suffocation. Unfortunately, initial symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning may seem like the flu or a cold before they turn deadly.

Carbon monoxide detectors will set off an alarm when a certain level of carbon monoxide is in the air. If you don't have one installed in your home, it's very important that you do. We suggest installing them outside your bedrooms and on each floor of the home. You can count on M & M Electric Construction Co.
