Do you know someone who doesn’t test the air they work in?
Every technician entering a building should recognize health symptoms associated with carbon monoxide exposures. They should also be aware that if they are not monitoring the CO levels they are working in, their own safety may be in jeopardy. What’s the value in not testing?
Personal monitoring isn’t just for the heating contractor or the building maintenance attendant. All knowledgeable technicians should protect themselves and alert building inhabitants if carbon monoxide levels are measured to be unsafe or chronically unhealthy. Do you know what levels of carbon monoxide determine when your fire department puts on breathing apparatus and begin citizen evacuation? Take some responsibility in the air you breathe.

SAINT PAUL, MN – Each year about 50,000 people visit emergency rooms in the United States for CO poisoning, and more than 500 die each year from this silent, odorless, colorless gas. As part of Winter Hazard Awareness Week (November 5-9), the Minnesota Department of Commerce warns Minnesotans of the dangers of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and to take steps to avoid this “silent killer.”

A friend of mine notified me that the
pair of bald eagles has returned to their nest along the Mississippi River in
Davenport, Iowa. The Alcoa Company has their web cam up and running and viewing
of the nest is possible during daylight hours, Central Standard Time, US. The Alcoa
Eagle website gives a good history of the pair and the company’s involvement
with them. If you haven’t viewed this site through the hatching and growth of
the eaglets, I think you may find it to be quite a live sight to see when you
may have those periodic spare moments. This link will be posted on this site
for those people who may wish to capture the link and watch the cycle of life
of this nesting pair.
What does this have to do with carbon monoxide safety?
It is just a live web cam, perhaps a distraction from the headlines of death and injury. Please become aware of the air you breathe. Measurement is education. Measure your air accurately when measuring carbon monoxide. Bob Dwyer, CSME Carbon Monoxide Safety
