If you've recently purchased a portable generator due to power outages caused by the LA fires, remember to keep it outdoors at least 20ft away from your home and make sure your carbon monoxide (CO) alarms are working. 1 generator can produce as much CO as hundreds of cars and CO can kill in minutes.

The most common symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are headache, dizziness, weakness, upset stomach, vomiting, chest pain, and confusion. If you feel yourself experiencing any of these, get outside immediately.
