You can’t see it or smell it, so it can build up undetected. And in excessive amounts, carbon monoxide can be fatal. So how can you safeguard your home? Be sure to have your chimney and heating system checked on a regular basis and make any necessary repairs. And be aware of the symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure, such as coughing, headaches, dizziness, upset stomach, blurry vision or ringing in the ears. #ALLTODAYFORACOURSEBULLETIN
