Everywhere CO is a problem
A huge case of carbon monoxide poisoning forces the evacuation of an Ogden business park Thursday afternoon. The levels of the deadly gas reached 20 times higher than what is deemed safe, and dozens have been taken to the hospital.
The carbon monoxide levels inside the plant Elkay West plant, at 551 W. Deport Dr., were described as being lethally high. 30 people needed immediate attention and were taken to the hospital. 7 people that were considered critical had to go to a hospital in Salt Lake to be treated there. 14 others with minor symptoms were also taken to the hospital.
Thursday afternoon, the workers began feeling sick while the plant, which manufactures stainless steel sinks, was evacuated.

Scary stuff
Unfortunately the only time it(CO)gets any attention is when it's too late.
Senseless and completely preventable.
Thanks for posting the info.

yep everywhere
even in crawl spaces. Two days ago I was in a crawl space with the tin guys. They were trying to start a propane heater down there. I asked them not to and on it went. I left. And yes I told them about getting sick, dying even, yet on it went!!!0
