FIRE & OUTDOOR REPORT: Continuing on with Carbon Monoxide Awareness Month, here are a few more safety tips. Uninspected furnaces, boilers, fireplaces, and wood or pellet stoves can leak dangerous concentrations of carbon monoxide directly into home living spaces. Also, Running portable generators, charcoal grills, or fuel-powered tools indoors, or near open windows during power outages, traps deadly exhaust inside. Running a vehicle engine inside an attached garage, even with the garage door wide open, also allows toxic gas to rapidly seep into the home. Find more information at oregon.gov/osfm.
