Do Gas Ranges Contribute to Carbon Monoxide Emissions?

!±8± Do Gas Ranges Contribute to Carbon Monoxide Emissions?

If you own a gas range, should you be purchasing "Carbon Offsets" to even out your carbon monoxide emissions? Are those emissions enough to warrant any concern for you and your family? The natural gas industry has been dealing with questions such as these since the 1920's, but the public's interest in questions such as these has escalated as the proliferation of environmental degradation information has increased. Beyond the environmental concerns, do gas ranges present a danger to you personally?

There are no set governmental regulations for carbon monoxide emissions, but most gas companies do have policies in place that monitor the emissions from a residential perspective. Gas companies do rely on information reported to them from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as well as the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQA), so they are at least not basing their guidelines on studies they have conducted, which can lead to information being distorted for their own benefit.

Research aside, there are basic safety measures that cannot be laboratory tested - and those are the measures you take inside your home. It is necessary with any gas range that it be vented properly to ensure there is no build up of CO in your home.

If there is ever a crack in the vent piping, it is important that it is patched professionally and not with tape or any other general adhesive as it is not going to allow proper ventilation. When making the initial purchase of a gas range, be cognizant of whether or not the brand you are considering carries with it the seal of the American Gas Association, Underwriters' Laboratories or other such national testing agency's seal or approval.

Regulations concerning the emissions from gas ranges will continue to change to ensure their safety - both for those cooking with them today as well as for future generations who will be forced to deal with any repercussions of our CO2 emissions.
