Why Choose Professional Carbon Monoxide Testing?

Why do you need a professional to help with carbon monoxide detection service?

Accurate Installation: Our professionals ensure CO detectors are placed in optimal locations (e.g., near sleeping areas, per manufacturer guidelines) for effective monitoring, as improper placement can miss dangerous CO levels.
Expertise in Equipment: We use calibrated, high-quality detectors that are more reliable than some consumer-grade models, reducing false alarms or missed detections.
Identifying CO Sources: Squeak’s experts can inspect potential CO sources (e.g., furnaces, water heaters, or gas appliances) and identify leaks or malfunctions that DIY checks might overlook.
Safety and Compliance: We ensure detectors meet local building codes and safety standards, which vary by region, avoiding legal or safety issues.
Maintenance and Testing: Professionals can perform regular maintenance, test detector functionality, and replace units when needed, as CO detectors have a limited lifespan (5-7 years).
Risk Assessment: CO is odorless, colorless, and deadly, and professionals can assess home-specific risks (e.g., ventilation issues or appliance conditions) that untrained individuals might not recognize.

While DIY detectors are useful, professionals provide expertise, precision, and peace of mind, especially in high-risk homes with fuel-burning appliances. If you suspect a CO issue, a professional can also respond quickly to prevent poisoning. Call Squeak’s Plumbing, Heating & Air for carbon monoxide detection services.

What Is Carbon Monoxide (CO)?

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that is produced during the incomplete combustion of fuel-burning appliances. It is often referred to as the “silent killer” because it can go unnoticed until it’s too late. Common sources of CO include malfunctioning furnaces, gas-powered vehicles, gas ranges, and enclosed spaces near attached garages or spaces with poor ventilation. It is crucial to be aware of these sources and take preventive measures.

Health Risks of Carbon Monoxide Exposure

Carbon monoxide exposure can lead to a range of symptoms, from mild to severe, including headache, dizziness, nausea, confusion, and even loss of consciousness. In extreme cases, it can be fatal. The long-term effects of exposure to lower levels of carbon monoxide can result in permanent damage to vital organs, making early detection and prevention paramount.

Signs of a Carbon Monoxide Leak

Recognizing the signs of a carbon monoxide (CO) leak is crucial for your safety. Here are a few signs that may indicate a CO leak:

Sudden Illness. If multiple people in your home suddenly experience symptoms such as headaches, nausea, dizziness, or confusion, it could be a sign of CO exposure. Pay attention if these symptoms improve when you leave the house.
Stale, Stuffy Air. A CO leak can make the air in your home feel stale or stuffy. It may lack the usual freshness.
Excessive Condensation. Unusually high levels of condensation on windows, walls, or other cold surfaces can be a sign of increased humidity, which may result from a CO leak.
Soot or Yellow/Brown Stains. Soot or yellow/brown stains on or around your fuel-burning appliances, such as furnaces, water heaters, or gas stoves, may indicate incomplete combustion and a potential CO leak.
Pilot Lights Frequently Extinct. If the pilot lights on your gas appliances frequently go out, it could be a sign of a problem with the appliance or a CO leak.
Nausea or Headaches When at Home. If you experience nausea or headaches constantly when at home but feel better when you’re away, it could be due to CO exposure.
Odd Smells. While CO itself is odorless, a gas leak from a malfunctioning appliance could produce unusual odors, which may serve as a warning sign.
Visible Damage or Rust on Appliances. Inspect your fuel-burning appliances regularly for visible damage, rust, or corrosion. Any such signs should prompt a professional inspection.

What to Do if You Suspect a Carbon Monoxide Leak

If you suspect a carbon monoxide (CO) leak, act quickly to protect yourself and others, as CO is a colorless, odorless, and potentially deadly gas. Here’s what to do:

Evacuate Immediately:
- Leave the building or area where you suspect the leak. Get everyone, including pets, to fresh air right away.
- Do not delay to gather belongings or investigate.
Seek Fresh Air and Ventilate:
- Go outside or to a well-ventilated area. Open doors and windows if it’s safe to do so on your way out to help ventilate the space.
Check for Symptoms:
- Look for signs of CO poisoning, including headache, dizziness, nausea, confusion, weakness, shortness of breath, or unconsciousness. If anyone is experiencing these symptoms, seek medical help immediately.
Call Emergency Services:
- Once safely outside, call 911 or your local emergency number. Report a suspected CO leak and describe any symptoms people are experiencing.
- If you’re unsure, err on the side of caution and call for help.
Do Not Re-Enter:
- Do not go back into the building until emergency personnel or professionals declare it safe.
Seek Medical Attention:
- If anyone shows symptoms of CO poisoning, get them to a hospital or call for medical assistance immediately. CO poisoning requires prompt treatment, often with oxygen therapy.
Turn Off Suspected Sources (If Safe):
- If you can safely access the source (e.g., a gas appliance) and know how to turn it off, do so only if it doesn’t delay evacuation. Otherwise, leave this to professionals.
Contact a Professional:
- After evacuation, call Squeak’s for a qualified technician to inspect and repair potential sources of the leak, such as gas appliances, furnaces, water heaters, or vehicles running in an attached garage.
Use CO Detectors:
- If you don’t have working CO detectors, install them immediately after the incident is resolved. Place them on every level of your home, near sleeping areas, and follow manufacturer instructions for maintenance.

How Our Carbon Monoxide Detectors Work

Our carbon monoxide detectors utilize advanced sensors, including biomimetic sensors, to detect even trace amounts of CO in the air. When CO levels exceed safe limits, the carbon monoxide alarm sounds, alerting you to the presence of this poisonous gas. This immediate alert gives you time to evacuate your home and call emergency responders.

While carbon monoxide detectors are available for individual use, professional detection services provide an extra layer of safety. Our expert technicians have the knowledge and equipment to accurately assess your home’s risk factors and install CO detectors strategically.
