BE A HERO - TEST YOUR CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS EVERY MONTH TO SAVE LIVES

WE INSTALL carbon monoxide detectors in all Muir homes with gas appliances.

They could save you and the lives of those you love.

Be a hero and test your detectors regularly.

Gas safety imageYou should test your carbon monoxide detector every month. If it’s not working properly, it’s important to let us know so we can replace it.

Every year, thousands of people across the UK are diagnosed with carbon monoxide poisoning.

It's a highly poisonous gas. You can’t see it, taste it or smell it, but it can kill quickly with no warning.

Carbon monoxide detectors alert you if this poisonous gas is present in your home.

“It’s important you test the carbon monoxide detectors we provide.

“Doing this every month will help you stay safe if a gas leak should ever occur in your home.

“Regular testing will ensure your alarm will work. It could save the lives of you and those you love.”
