The survey was carried out by local home safety products specialist, Sprue Safety Products, at the University’s annual Housing Day. Despite the majority (91%) saying they were aware of carbon monoxide, fewer than half (43%) of respondents said they knew the symptoms which could indicate presence of the gas. Although you can’t see, smell or taste carbon monoxide, there are signs that indicate there may be a strong risk of CO being produced. Any of the following could be a sign that there is carbon monoxide in your home: www.sprue.com enquiry number 913 Introducing the UK's most energy efficient stoves, Euroheat's updated HWAM range.

"Increasingly, wood burning stoves are being viewed as real contributors to reducing heating bills, with contemporary styling and stateof the-art technology that suit the most forward-thinking customer," said co-founder of Euroheat, Simon Holden. enquiry number 908 Xpelair Ventilation Solutions has launched the Xcell Stratum low profile heat recovery unit, designed to be exceptionally installer friendly thanks to its integral fixing points and lightweight EPP design.
