Is your gas heater safe? You need to be sure, because carbon monoxide (CO) could be spilling into your home while your gas heater is running. CO is a poisonous gas that you can’t see, taste or smell and it is produced from burning fuels like the gas used in your heater.

CO building up inside your home can make you sick for a short time, have long-term health effects or even kill you and your family quickly.

Some of the symptoms are similar to cold symptoms, common in winter and this can make it difficult to diagnose and differentiate that you are suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. EnergySafe Victoria advises if you notice any of the following symptoms, they could be caused by CO leaking from your heater.

Dizziness
Feeling sick or nauseous
Headaches
People and/or pets getting sick at the same time
Feeling unwell only when you’re at home

This is why it is vital you have your gas heaters and appliances serviced and tested by a qualified technician before you switch them on and start using them.
