Three people were taken to an area hospital due to a "carbon monoxide emergency" in Centreville, Virginia Thursday evening.

  • Check the battery twice a year and replace the detector every five years
  • Have your furnace, water heater and gas or coal-burning appliances serviced by a technician every year
  • Never use a generator inside your home, basement or garage or less than 20 feet from any opening into your house
  • Never run a car in a garage that is attached to a house, even with your garage door open
