Crews responded to elevated carbon monoxide levels at home today. CO alarm alerted the residents early, allowing firefighters identify the cause as a faulty boiler shut down the gas and ventilate the home and make it safe.

Incident like this, reinforce the importance of having a working CO alarm on every level of your home and testing them regularly

Stay safe, check your alarms and have fuel burning appliances inspected annually.
