Ei ELECTRONICS SPONSORS NATIONAL CHILD SAFETY WEEK.

‘AVOID THE WORST. PUT CHILD SAFETY FIRST’

Being a mum can be hard work! Trying to stop children from accidentally hurting themselves can be a full time job! Most dangers are easy to spot, but what about the one's that are not so visible, such as Carbon Monoxide poisoning? Ei Electronics, Europes leading manufacturer of Carbon Monoxide alarms, will once again be sponsoring The Child Accident Prevention Trusts, Child Safety Week (19-25 June 2006), to help prevent one of the single biggest killers in the home, Carbon Monoxide poisoning.

Carbon Monoxide is a colourless, tasteless and odourless gas produced whenever a fossil fuel, such as coal, gas, oil, wood or petrol, is not burned efficiently. It could be a result of an inadequately maintained or badly fitted heating appliance such as a wall heater, fire or boiler.

If a child has an accident, you react, but what if you dont spot any signs to react to? Carbon Monoxide poisoning mimics other common ailments and can be easily misdiagnosed with ailments such as flu, headache, fatigue and food poisoning.

Symptoms of Carbon Monoxide poisoning which include, headaches, muscle pain, drowsiness, nausea and vomiting, can often be harder to detect in a child. Limited vocabulary often means that young children can't describe exactly how they're feeling.

Children do get sick, so the only way to ensure that you and your children are fully protected against Carbon Monoxide poisoning is with an audible alarm, such as the Ei204 from Ei Electronics.

Easy to install and maintain, the Ei204 alarm checks Carbon Monoxide concentration levels every 50 seconds, keeping you & your children safe and free to enjoy family life without another extra added worry.
