Carbon monoxide detectors can be found in many mechanical rooms and campus apartments with gas appliances.
- If your carbon monoxide alarm goes off, immediately evacuate the building to fresh air and safety.
- Call Campus Police or 9-1-1 once safely outside to report the incident and if there is anyone experiencing carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms like headaches, dizziness and vomiting.
- Do not return into the building until it has been cleared by first responders. Even if your alarm stops alerting, and you’ve switched off all the appliances and opened the windows and doors, the source may still be producing the poisonous gas.
