Danger to life from carbon monoxide

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a poisonous gas, which arises during the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels such as oil, gas, or solid fuels.

Dangers arise if CO escapes from the heating system due to a fault or a leak and collects unnoticed in enclosed spaces.

You can neither see, taste nor smell CO.

The device may not prevent chronic effects of CO exposure. The product will not completely safeguard individuals at special risk.
