Asthmatic that had carbon monoxide poisoning before smiliar symptons in a house with heat pump, why am i sick?


I have had carbon monoxide poisoning from a gas furnace before and this house has a new heat pump. Could it be making me sick? I have had headaches, nausea, and a strange taste in my mouth off and on for 3 weeks now. Is it making me sick?

No, unless there's some combustion source. Heat pumps are literally an air conditioner "turned around" (cold end blowing outside, warm end blowing inside)...there's no flame or combustion- ergo, no way to get CO poisoning from it.

Check to see if a water heater, oven, fireplace or dryer is not working correctly and is fuel run....electric won't do it either.

Best wishes & have a blessed Christmas :-)

dude get to a doctor STAT. This is the kind of question that requires blood tests, because it could be a syndrome(group of symptoms), or just coincidences due to weather sick friends etc. only a certified pro can tell

there are other places to get carbon monoxide besides a furnace. do you have a gas water heater gas stove gas fireplace or just an old fashioned fire place? these are all sources of possible carbon monoxide
