SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Carbon Monoxide Poi-
soning Prevention Act’’. 
SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 
Congress finds the following: 
(1) Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas 
produced by burning any fuel. Exposure to 
unhealthy levels of carbon monoxide can lead to car-
bon monoxide poisoning, a serious health condition 
that could result in death. 
(2) Unintentional carbon monoxide poisoning 
from motor vehicles and the abnormal operation of 
fuel-burning appliances, such as furnaces, water 
heaters, portable generators, and stoves, in residen-
tial homes and other dwelling units kills more than 
400 people each year and sends more than 20,000 
to hospital emergency rooms for treatment. 
(3) Research shows that purchasing and install-
ing carbon monoxide alarms close to the sleeping 
areas in residential homes and other dwelling units 
can help avoid fatalities. 
(4) Congress should promote the purchase and 
installation of carbon monoxide alarms in residential

alarm’’ means a carbon monoxide alarm that com-
plies with the standards published, incorporated, or

alarms pursuant to this Act. 
(2) The term ‘‘carbon monoxide alarm’’ means

sumer Product Safety Commission.
