You can't see it, smell it, or taste it. Yet there's at least a chance it's in your home if you have a furnace, a fireplace, a water heater, or anything else that burns fossil fuels. Carbon monoxide (CO) kills some 500 Americans and puts an estimated 10,000 in hospital emergency rooms each year by displacing oxygen in the bloodstream. Simply warming up a barbecue, car, mower, or snow blower inside an attached garage creates CO, which can seep into living areas.

Flulike symptoms that affect an entire household may be the first signs of a problem. The latest CO alarms can detect this deadly gas before it reaches the danger level.
