Press Release Summary: Be sure all heat-producing appliances run the way they are
supposed to, including your clothes dryer

Press Release Body: Groesbeck, OH--Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas
that interferes with how the body processes oxygen; it can be dangerous and deadly.
Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include headache, nausea and disorientation.
The dangerous gases are produced inside homes where carbon-containing fuels are
incompletely burned. The gases must be vented to the outside.

When oil or gas furnaces, cooking appliances, water heaters and fireplaces are not
properly vented, carbon monoxide can build up inside homes. Two common sources are
the gas furnace heat exchanger and the gas water heater. Newer homes have been
built to be more energy efficient, therefore, the gases have fewer places where they
can escape and there are fewer places where fresh air enters the home. A proper
ventilation system provides fresh air for complete combustion to keep fuel-burning
equipment working properly and safely.

It is important to be sure all combustion equipment and appliances in a home are
properly installed and have adequate ventilation. Have them checked and cleaned
each year to be certain that they are working safely and efficiently. This includes
your clothes dryer. Be sure it is venting properly and the vent tubes are not
clogged with lint. Also, don't use all the home's exhaust vents and the clothes
dryer at the same time; this could create negative pressure in the house, pulling
carbon monoxide back inside.
