Suspected carbon monoxide leak – Sydenham

Firefighters were called to a suspected carbon monoxide leak at flats above a shop on Sydenham Road in Sydenham.

A woman and a child were taken to hospital after suffering from suspected carbon monoxide poisoning. Four further people from a neighbouring flat left the building and a man later went to hospital.

Armstrong Air and Air Ease Gas Furnaces Can Poison You:
Problem:
The furnace produces high levels of carbon monoxide (CO) under certain operating conditions, which poses a risk of CO poisoning to the consumer. #armstrong #airfurnace #carbonmonoxide #poisoning #recall

Twice in as many weeks, I have heard someone state that CO (carbon monoxide) is heavier than air and sinks.
This is false!
CO disburses relatively evenly in an atmosphere. This is why you can mount your CO detector on the ceiling or plug one into an open electrical outlet. Both locations are effective at warning you of a higher concentration of CO.

Each year people in #Humboldt Co. die from #carbonmonoxide poisoning due to improper generator use. Carbon monoxide poisoning is preventable. The best way to know if you are at risk is to have a working carbon monoxide detector on every level of your home. #winterstorm

About #EastPalestine in #Ohio. #Dioxins are a persistent pollutant They are released for example when burning plastic waste such as #PVC and the criteria is that the more chlorine is present in what is burned, the more dioxins are released
#VinylChloride is a precursor of PVC that when burning forms #HydrogenChloride vapor -boils at 48ºC- #CarbonMonoxide and #CarbonDioxide and very little #Phosgene
If chlorine volatilized in #HydrogenChloride,#Dioxins will be less of a problem

@ryanlcooper and here I was concerned about the #carbonmonoxide spewing out of the forklifts at work.

Happy Friday the 13th.

Though I'm not superstitious, I do sometimes think of horrible things that can happen to people.

Today seems as good as any to check to see if you have a working #smokedetector and #carbonmonoxide detector.

#MisManagement: #CaCPUC, to maintain PG&E's #monopoly, does not allow cities to form renewable #microgrids, and taxes rooftop solar with batteries. CA now has 2GW of home diesel generators because of the #PSPS (Public Safety Power Shutdowns) "linked to an uptick in #CarbonMonoxide #poisonings… likely because people were running generators in enclosed spaces during #PowerOutages." https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Deaths-of-2-men-in-Sea-Ranch-possibly-linked-to-17714030.php

I measured the #pollution from my #gas stove. It was bad.

Here's what I learned putting air quality monitors all over my house.

@natbat It seems the best way to be safe from carbon monoxide poisoning is to not burn fuel. #CarbonMonoxide

@Fascinatorfun
We had smoke and CO detectors fitted when our house was rewired.
We woke up one night to the sound of alarms going off. We searched for a fire, couldn't find one, then remembered that we had CO detectors as well.
We turned off the oil-fired boiler, opened windows and doors and waited outside until we were sure the house had been thoroughly ventilated. Boiler fault.
We were lucky - without the detectors we would have died.

Fit and check CO detectors!

@wheatnoil Terrifying #CarbonMonoxide

#PSA Did the #storm cause you to lose power and you now need to #heat your home? Do NOT be tempted to bring a #CharcoalGrill inside your home! The risk of #CarbonMonoxide poisoning is enormous. If you plan to run a generator, have it outside the house for the same reason, well away from any air intake vents. #Safety

A study was conducted to determine the ideal height placement of a carbon monoxide detector. Contrary to public opinion, CO did not layer on the floor, float at the middle of the chamber, or rise to the top. In each case, the levels of CO equalized throughout the test chamber. They concluded that it is reasonable to place a residential CO alarm at any height within a room. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21536403/. #CO #carbonMonoxide #safety
