Do YOU have Carbon Monoxide in Hand..?
Fingershield Safety (UK) – Closing the door on the Silent Killer.
We here at Fingershield Safety UK would like to announce the launch of our very own Carbon Monoxide (CO) Detector to effectivley help close the door on the silent but deadly killer that claims numerous lives every year here in the UK.
According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), 16 people died from CO poisoning during the 2005/6 period, which is mainly caused by gas appliances and flues that have not been properly installed, maintained or that are poorly ventilated. Levels that do not kill can cause serious harm to health if breathed in over a long period. HSE strongly recommends the use of carbon monoxide detectors as a useful back-up precaution. It should also be noted that 123 incidents of CO poisoning was reported to the HSE during the period of 2006/7*
A recent storyline in Channel 4’s Hollyoaks showed the immense danger that Carbon Monoxide poses to all when a fan of the soap was unknowingly hit by the deadly gas. The hit show aired a plot in which students suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning, helping the fan to realise that she was being slowly poisoned by the deadly gas. Because of this she went to hospital where they confirmed that she had been inhaling the deadly CO gas fumes and was hours away from death!
The price for our CO Detectors (excluding VAT at 17.5%):
Fingershield CO Detector - £2.25
Fingershield CO Detector Twin Pack - £3.95
