Water Heaters:
Carbon Monoxide: Carbon monoxide wreaks havoc in the body because it latches onto the hemoglobin, the component in blood that carries oxygen to cells. Carbon monoxide binds to hemoglobin with 240 times more sticking power than oxygen. Soon cells can't get the oxygen they need. A headache is one classic early symptom of carbon monoxide poisoning: fatigue, nausea and dizziness are others. Installing a carbon monoxide detector in your home will decrease the chances of corbon monoxide poisoning by 80%. |
