How well do these operate if the electricity fails? If it’s airtight wouldn’t you eventually run out of oxygen?

- wffurr 5y agoYou can open the door or window.
- senectus1 5y agoassuming you wake up in time :-P
- carimura 5y agoperri-air cans
- zhengyi13 5y ago... I don't suppose the code on your luggage is 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5?
- ars 5y agoWhile you are sleeping? But according to google it would take a week to die from too much CO2 in a sealed room.
- senectus1 5y agothats assuming there isn't something else eating the oxygen or pumping CO2 in.
- Markoff 5y agojust install battery powered CO2 detectors then personally I'm not fan of airtight homes
- bryanrasmussen 5y agohmm, now I suspect Google may be purchasing carbon offsets and piping the extra C02 into people's houses.
- adrianN 5y agoHumans have relatively reliable CO2 detectors built in that wake you up before you die.
- micromacrofoot 5y agoA single person in an air-tight average sized room could survive on the available oxygen for about a week. So I suppose if you're in a perfectly air-tight room and no one comes and goes at all or opens a window, you could die eventually. Even if you're relatively reclusive, assuming you go outside once a day to get the mail... you'll be fine.
