   Many people die of carbon monoxide poisoning in our daily life, especially in winter。Winter is the prone and high occurrence period of carbon monoxide poisoning,when using coal stove, gas stove or liquefied gas stove for heating, due to poor ventilation, insufficient oxygen supply or gas leakage, a large amount of carbon monoxide can be accumulated in the room, causing human poisoning.

  Do not stop and turn on the heating in daily life, because stopping and turning on the heating will lead to carbon monoxide poisoning, especially when the window is closed, it will cause carbon monoxide to gather in the car and can not be discharged, because do not close the window to turn on the heating for a while warm, even if you want to open it, you should pay attention to let the window retain a certain gap.
