The Normal Fire Department (Normal, IL), and the IPC, is issuing a reminder to make sure you have working carbon-monoxide detectors in your home. The fall and winter are prime times for carbon monoxide poisoning since windows are closed during these months. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless and toxic gas that can cause death. Lower levels of CO poisoning can cause headaches, dizziness, disorientation, nausea and fatigue. Common sources of carbon monoxide poisoning include faulty furnaces, water heaters, wood-burning stoves, vehicle exhaust entering homes, electrical generators, and propane- or natural gas-fueled heaters and stoves. pantagraph/lifestyles/health-med-fit/firefighters-issue-carbon-monoxide-warning/article_21dbe154-438b-11e3-9768-001a4bcf887a.html
