Hi Dave              2/4/07 4:18 PM

sas-> The deaths you heard of were probably from carbon monoxide
sas-> caused by people using the heaters or the charcoal in a tightly
sas-> closed area.  Folks don't realize that you need either a drafty
sas-> house or you need to open a window or two about an inch to allow
sas-> in fresh air and oxygen.  Maryanne and I never ran the heater
sas-> without a nearby carbon monoxide detector.

And most people don't realize how widespread the infiltration can be in a
house.

A few years ago we had a generator running in the garage during a two day
power failure.   The garage door was open half way for ventilation.  For
those of you who weren't at the 2005 FlyFest Picnic, we have a 42 by 28
Ranch house, with an enclosed breezeway connecting the garage to the house.
Our CO2 detector was in the bedroom's far wall, a good 50 feet from the
generator, with two full walls between.

After we went to bed [it was like 3 hours between the required gas
fillings] we were suddenly alerted by the detector's loud alarm.  I ran out
to the garage and turned off the generator.    Then I debated turning it
back on.  But the very cold weather tipped the scales, and I opened both
garage doors all the way, and started the generator up again.  The house
had gotten freezing cold from airing it out to get rid of the CO2. Thank
goodness there was no further alarms.   

It had not happened before when we used the generator.  I figure the strong
west wind, from the far side of the garage, was what created the problem.

That incident had no small part in the decision I soon made to install a
full house, outside generator.   [g]



This recipe reminds me to wonder where Iris has gone to since the Seattle
Picnic?
