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.
