Most people associate carbon monoxide exposure with faulty furnaces or home heating systems. What many do not realize is that the improper installation of commercial equipment can create the same deadly risk.
A preventable loss in a Chicago condominium
In a case handled by Lisa Longo, a tradesman was sent to service a boiler in a condominium complex. Unknown to him, equipment had been improperly installed years earlier. Carbon monoxide was allowed to accumulate in the boiler room and throughout the building, leading to a tragic and preventable loss of life.
Wrongful death cases often involve more than one mistake
Cases like these are a reminder that wrongful death claims often involve more than a single error. They may require investigating manufacturers, installers, property owners, maintenance records, and safety protocols to determine what went wrong and who should be held accountable.
