The best way to protect your family is to show them the information on this web site about CO poisoning, and to tell them to buy a UL-Listed CO detector. The information on these pages may save your family one day, as knowledge and preparation are the best defenses against CO poisoning.

Also, tell your parents to make sure that machines that make CO are working OK. Leaks in pipes or in these appliances may cause CO to build up in your home, and cause health problems.
