Vernon Fire Rescue Services Deputy Chief Brian Parsons said every home should have a smoke detector and a carbon monoxide detector.

The University of Maryland Medical Center uses this chamber to treat several conditions, including carbon monoxide poisoning.

Building Blocks Learning Center in Kittery announced its immediate closure Thursday after a carbon monoxide scare last week.

Police said he was using his gas stove to heat his home, which reached 187 degrees and flooded the air with carbon monoxide.
