2-minute risk assessment

The one thing every COPD family should check before winter

A healthy person can live with a small carbon monoxide leak all winter and barely notice. A person with COPD cannot afford to.

Take this quiz to know how protected your home actually is.

Question 1

How would you describe the current stage of your COPD?

Mild — symptoms manageable, mostly normal activity

Moderate — noticeable limitations, inhalers used daily

Severe — significant breathlessness, limited activity

Very severe — on supplemental oxygen or close to it

Not formally staged / not sure

Yes — noticeably worse every winter, better by spring

Somewhat — some winters are harder than others

About the same year-round

This is the first winter since diagnosis

Question 5

Have there been any serious flare-ups or hospitalizations in the last couple of years?

Yes — one or more hospitalizations for COPD

Yes — serious flare managed at home, no hospitalization

No — relatively stable, no major flares

First winter with the diagnosis, no flare history yet

Your CO Vulnerability Risk

LowModerateElevated

Based on your profile, the home carries a meaningful CO risk for someone with COPD.

A person with COPD is already running at 88–92% oxygen — right up against the line, with nothing left in reserve. Low-level CO doesn't need to reach dangerous levels to cause harm. It just needs to take a few percent off what they were barely surviving on.

The cruelest part: CO symptoms — breathlessness, exhaustion, poor sleep, foggy thinking — are identical to COPD worsening. The doctor adjusts the inhaler. The family accepts that this is where things are now. Nobody thinks to check the air.

And the lung function lost during a CO-worsened winter doesn't come back. COPD damage is permanent.

Most people don't know that standard CO detectors don't alarm until 70 PPM — an emergency level. Everything below that, including the levels quietly stripping oxygen from someone with no reserve, goes completely unseen.

That's why TrueDetect monitors from 1 PPM and alarms at 30 PPM — hours before a vulnerable body reaches the danger zone.
