Combustion Pollution
Health Problems

The Consumer Product Safety Commission
(CPSC), and
The American Medical Association
(AMA)

Key Signs/Symptoms

  • dizziness or headache
  • confusion
  • nausea/emesis
  • fatigue
  • tachycardia
  • eye and upper respiratory tract irritation
  • wheezing/bronchial constriction
  • persistent cough
  • elevated blood carboxyhemoglobin levels
  • increased frequency of angina in persons with coronary heart disease

Diagnostic Leads

  • What types of combustion equipment are present, including gas furnaces or water heaters, stoves, unvented gas or kerosene space heaters, clothes dryers, fireplaces? Are vented appliances properly vented to the outside?
  • Are household members exhibiting influenza-like symptoms during the heating season? Are they complaining of nausea, watery eyes, coughing, headaches?
  • Is a gas oven or range used as a home heating source?
  • Is the individual aware of odor when a heat source is in use?
  • Is heating equipment in disrepair or misused? When was it last professionally inspected?
  • Does structure have an attached or underground garage where motor vehicles may idle?
  • Is charcoal being burned indoors in a hibachi, grill, or fireplace?

Remedial Action

Periodic professional inspection and maintenance of installed equipment such as furnaces, water heaters, and clothes dryers are recommended. Such equipment should be vented directly to the outdoors. Fireplace and wood or coal stove flues should be regularly cleaned and inspected before each heating season. Kitchen exhaust fans should be exhausted to outside. Vented appliances should be used whenever possible. Charcoal should never be burned inside. Individuals potentially exposed to combustion sources should consider installing carbon monoxide detectors that meet the requirements of Underwriters Laboratory (UL) Standard 2034. No detector is 100% reliable, and some individuals may experience health problems at levels of carbon monoxide below the detection sensitivity of these devices.
