Electrical surges are responsible for millions of dollars of property damage each year in the U.S. These power surges can instantly overload and short-out the circuity of home electronics and appliances. This happens because an increase in voltage above an appliance’s normal operation voltage causes an arc of electrical current within the appliance. The heat generated from this arc causes damage to the electronic circuit boards and other electrical components.

Heating Season Is Carbon Monoxide Detector Season

Tuesday, November 24th, 2015

Technically, carbon monoxide poisoning can occur at any time, but there are far more instances of accidental CO poisoning during the winter months for two key reasons. First, you are likely operating a heating system and possibly using a fireplace. If your heating system is a combustion system, carbon monoxide is part of the combustion byproducts. Second, your home is shut down pretty tight with closed doors and windows, trapping in air that may be bad for you. While there are a number of safety controls placed on heating unit precisely to avoid problems like this, the issue remains that carbon monoxide is an odorless, tasteless, invisible gas that is completely undetectable to us. And this is why using a CO detector is so important.
