You should also be aware that as the heat goes up, so do reports of carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon Monoxide is an odorless and colorless gas, and carbon monoxide leaks can be fatal. There is an easy way to stay protected. Carbon monoxide alarms can detect the gas and warn you if there's a danger. Make sure there are detectors in your house, and that the batteries are working.
