Can carbon monoxide come from radiators?

Does carbon monoxide come from cigarettes?

Does carbon monoxide come from cars?
No, only Carbon dioxide, water, and energy.
What does carbon monoxide pollution come from?
You inhale it then the Carbon monoxide bonds with the hemoglobin in blood.Hemoglobin is supposed to bond with oxygen and carry it around the blood stream - but chemically it prefers to bond to carbonmonoxide - when it does this your blood can't carry as much oxygen and you get drowsy and then pass out and die. It's almost like slow internal suffocation.
Are prefab chimneys as safe as regular chimneys?
With wood-burning regular chimneys you have to worry about your house being set on fire, but with prefabricated fireplaces the only concern is oxygen levels becoming lower. Luckily, these fireplaces come with sensors that shut the unit down automatically if there is a problem. If you decide to go this route, you may want to install carbon monoxide detectors in your house as well, just to ensure the gas fireplace doesn't cause any carbon monoxide poisoning in your home.

Does carbon monoxide come from burning petrol?
Yes, carbon monoxide is formed to some degree by burning petrol and other hydrocarbon fuels.
What to do once you are exposed to carbon monoxide?
Get to fresh air immediately. Do not re- enter a dwelling or structure until it has been ventilated thoroughly. Call the fire department non- emergency phone number and request they come and test the structure for carbon monoxide and find its source. You can also call a Heating and Air professional and ask them to come test the structure for you. Do not occupy the structure until the source of the carbon monoxide has been found and repaired. The sources of carbon monoxide can be gas ranges and stoves, water heaters and furnaces. Wood burning appliances as stoves and fireplaces can also produce carbon monoxide. Kerosene burning heaters also can produce carbon monoxide.

Where does the oxygen come from that combines with carbon monoxide in the catalytic converter?
Incomplete Combustion
Why are carbon monoxide better reducing agent than carbon?
Carbon monoxide is a gas so will fill the container the reaction is taking place in so it will be moving around and will come into contact with more reactant. Carbon is a solid so will not be moving around and will come into contact with less reactant particles.
