Heater Dangers: Sleeping with it on can be Fatal!

• Sleeping with heaters/braziers in closed rooms risks fatal carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning, a colorless, odorless "silent killer."
• CO gas binds to hemoglobin, cutting off oxygen supply, leading to unconsciousness and death during sleep.
• Heaters also dry air, causing dry skin, eye irritation, and worsening respiratory issues like asthma.
• Preventive measures include ensuring ventilation, maintaining room humidity, and turning off heaters before sleeping.
• Keep heaters at least 3 feet from flammable objects and protect vulnerable individuals from direct hot air.

Why It Matters: Always ensure ventilation and turn off heaters before sleeping to prevent fatal carbon monoxide poisoning and health issues.
