If I haven't used my wood stove in over a week, can it still put off carbon monoxide?

I haven't burnt a fire in our stove in over a week. But, I haven't been feeling well the last few days. I went to the doctor today and she said she could smell smoke on me and wanted to check me for carbon monoxide. Today is friday and I won't know anything until monday. I am kinda worried.


Answer
I really doubt the coals would still be smoldering, but if you have any concerns what so ever, I would go to the local hardware store and buy a Carbon Monoxide detector. You could even call the fire dept. and see if they would recommend any particular model or brand. Whatever the price, it is well worth the peace of mind knowing that if the gas is present, that you would be alerted to it.

Do you have a working carbon monoxide dectector in your home at this time?

Answer
I don't because I don't have anything that burns fuel. If you have any appliance that burns fuel, oil, wood, etc you most definitely should have a co detector. Pay the price and get the best one that you can.
