With all of this snow and snow drifts be sure to check your exhaust pipes for furnaces and dryers and make sure they are not covered with snow. Also, if you are using a generator please read the fact sheet on carbon monoxide: http://www.ct.gov/dph/lib/dph/environmental_health/eoha/pdf/co_disasters.pdf

Stay warm!
