NSW Health Update: As the days and nights get colder, keep your family safe by never using BBQs and outdoor heaters inside your home.
They produce carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas you can’t see, taste or smell. This gas can kill quickly without warning. Leave outdoor heaters, barbeques, and charcoal outside. If you think you may have carbon monoxide poisoning, call the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26. In an emergency, dial triple zero (000) for an ambulance.
