Los Angeles sits in a basin that traps air pollution and affects combustion efficiency. Poor air quality means your furnace pulls in air already depleted of oxygen, which creates incomplete combustion and higher carbon monoxide production. Homes near the 405, 101, and 10 freeways experience worse conditions because vehicle exhaust compounds the problem. Older neighborhoods in Echo Park, Highland Park, and South Los Angeles contain housing stock from the 1920s through 1960s with original gas appliances or retrofitted systems that predate modern venting codes. These homes accumulate carbon monoxide faster because they lack proper air exchange systems.
