To mark Gas Safety Week (11th to 17th September), Arctic Hayes is highlighting the way personal carbon monoxide alarms can offer an extra level of protection for installers.
“As well as raising the awareness of gas safety amongst homeowners, the safety of Gas Safe engineers must be a priority – not just during Gas Safety Week, but at every site visit,” says Lee Parsons, CEO of Arctic Hayes. “Carrying a personal carbon monoxide alarm could save your life and provides peace of mind whilst on site.”
The Arctic Hayes SleepSafe Personal Carbon Monoxide Alarm is a lightweight, compact alarm for the early detection of carbon monoxide and is suitable for heating engineers at work, at home or on holiday. The alarm activates when the carbon monoxide level exceeds 30ppm with a 75dB audible alarm and LED indicators, and it can be worn on belts or hung on bags with a hook.
“These are high quality alarms that clip and sit nicely on workwear and will be your first line of defence against an invisible threat,” continues Lee. “We will be giving away a number of SleepSafe Carbon Monoxide Alarms via our social media channels over the course of Gas Safety Week.”
According to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence there are approximately 4000 attendances to A&E each year, 440 hospital admissions, and according to the Office of National Statistics 116 people died from the toxic effects of carbon monoxide poisoning in 2020.
