WHAT TO DO IF YOUR CO ALARM SOUNDS

Don't ignore it and don't investigate the source yourself.
01 Get everyone out of the property immediately
02 Leave doors and windows open as you exit
03 Call the National Gas Emergency Service
04 Seek medical attention for anyone showing symptoms
05 Do not re-enter until the property has been checked and cleared by a qualified engineer

The best entryway systems are small, visible, and specific. Give keys, wallet, bag, and outgoing items one clear place to land.
A tray catches pocket items, a pouch collects cables or receipts, and a single bag hook prevents the chair from becoming storage.
Carbon monoxide cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted.
If you suspect a carbon monoxide leak:
• Open doors and windows immediately • Turn off gas appliances if safe to do so • Remove yourself and everyone else (including pets) from the property • Seek fresh air and medical attention if symptoms are present
