Carbon monoxide poisoning.

The cause of cases of carbon monoxide poisoning were circumstances related to violations of fire safety requirements during the operation of faulty furnace and gas equipment (clogged chimney, burnouts and cracks in the furnace structure).

Thus, all the facts of carbon monoxide poisoning are associated with the negligent attitude of citizens to heating devices (disregard for fire safety requirements and improper operation), which increases the number of people injured from carbon monoxide, and often people get poisoned not alone, but whole families, where there are children.

And in order to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning to residents

Ulan district should follow simple rules:

- observe elementary fire safety measures when operating electric heating appliances and furnace heating devices;
