Why wait for the death or injury from carbon monoxide to occur before taking action? If you are
responsible for the air you breathe, start measuring the air you are in at
home, in motor vehicles, in public places and especially in places you enter to
service or work.
Find out what the notification or evacuation levels are for carbon monoxide in air in your community, and respond accordingly. Due diligence and duty requires announcing health and safety concerns to the occupants and/or owners of the space if carbon monoxide levels exceed those levels.
If you choose to wear your own, self-purchased personal CO monitor where you are employed, please be informed that some businesses have very aggressive reactions to employees self investigating safety concerns within the body of the company. If you discover carbon monoxide levels of concerning concentrations with reference to evacuation or health risks to vulnerable people, proceed through the structure of your system. Without testing, we would indeed be guessing.
Prevent carbon monoxide poisoning to yourself and others. Measure carbon monoxide for safety and knowledge. The more you test the more you learn. Measurement is education at its best. Bob Dwyer, CSME Carbon Monoxide Safety
