Mr. Nasim Tyab reports
The company's Model ONE carbon monoxide (CO) detector has been certified by
Underwriters Laboratories in the United States, under UL2034 (effective Oct. 1,
1998) the new and revised national standard for carbon monoxide detectors.
Carbon monoxide is the leading cause of death by accidental poisoning in the United
States. Each year an estimated 10,000 people in the United States are made ill
through exposure to carbon monoxide gas. As many as 300 to 400 die.
The Senco Model ONE is battery operated and features a digital read-out with
audible alarm. The majority of detectors on the market do not alert homeowners to
the presence of CO gas below 60 or 70 parts per million. By comparison, the Model
One provides audible alarms for both high level exposure and prolonged exposure
down to 40 PPM.
Recent medical research indicates that prolonged exposure to even relatively low
levels of carbon monoxide over an extended period of time can cause serious health
problems. Infants, the elderly, and those with a history of heart and respiratory
ailments are particularly susceptible.
The Consumer Products Safety Commission recommends that every home have at
least one carbon monoxide detector. Currently, however, fewer than 15 per cent of
U.S. homes have carbon monoxide detectors.
