The ghosting trend started at Halloween, but it's perfect for Carbon Monoxide Awareness Week. 👻
One thing we're NOT ghosting? CO alarms!
✅ Ensure you have working CO alarms on every level of your home.
✅ Test them monthly.
✅ Replace them before they expire.

Snow. Nests. Debris.
When chimneys or vents are blocked, carbon monoxide can build up in your home, even when your appliances are working.
You can’t see or smell CO, but a working alarm can warn you.

Fully charged = time to unplug. Overcharging can overheat batteries - give them a break! 🔋
