Carbon monoxide safety tips
Ontario's public safety regula-
tor, the Technical Standards and
Safety Authority (TSSA), is remind-
ing the public of carbon monoxide
(CO) safety tips following two
recent CO -related fatalities.
An 11 -year-old boy was found
dead from CO poisoning in the
family vehicle at the Lodge Louise
Campground in Parry Sound on
Igtaturday, August 31. l le'd opted to
Jeep in the family van rather than
the tent. A propane -fueled cooler
was operating in the back of the
van with all but one of the vehi-
cle's windows closed because of
mosquitoes.
On Sunday, September 1, an
84 -year-old man was found dead
and his wife in critical condition
as a result of CO poisoning while
at their cottage in Armour, north-
east of I3urk's Falls. A propane -
fueled refrigerator is suspected to
be the source of the CO. "These
are sad and tragic incidents that
could have been prevented," said
John Marshall, Director of
TSSA's Fuels Safety Pro-
gram. "Awareness of CO safety
risks is your best protection,"
added Mr. Marshall.
S'1'1:P 1: Eliminate CO at the
source. Follow manufacturer's
installation and operating instruc-
tions. Get your fuel -burning appli-
ances and equipment inspected
by a certified technician who
works for a TSSA-registered heat-
ing contractor. For a list of regis-
tered heating contractors, ask your
fuel supplier or call TSSA toll-free
at 1-877-682-TSSA (8772).
STEP 2: Ensure your home and
cottage have certified CO
alarms. They will warn you of ris-
ing (X) levels, giving you time to
take potentially life-saving action.
For proper installation locations,
follow manufacturer instructions
or ask your local fire department.
STEP 3: Know the symptoms of
CO poisoning. They are similar to
the flu - nausea, headache, burn-
ing eyes, confusion and drowsi-
ness - except there is no fever. If
they appear, immediately get eve-
ryone, including pets, outside to
fresh air and call 911 and/or your
local fire department.
TSSA encourages the public to
get the right facts about CO
safety risks, the leading cause of
accidental poisoning deaths in
North America, by visit-
ing cosafety.ca. The more you
know, the better you can prac-
tice CO safety and ensure you
and your family don't become
victims of CO poisoning.
