What is Carbon Monoxide?

Carbon monoxide (CO) is an odorless, colorless gas that can cause illness and death by asphyxiation.  Every year, over 200 people in the United States die from CO produced by fuel-burning appliances (furnaces, ranges, water heaters, room heaters). Others die from CO produced while burning charcoal inside a home, garage, vehicle or tent. Still others die from CO produced by cars left running in attached garages. Several thousand people go to hospital emergency rooms for treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning.
