Yes it is highly recommended. Carbon monoxide is an invisible, odorless toxic gas produced as a by-product of combustion, any time you burn fuel in furnaces, stoves, grills, fireplaces, cars and similar devices.
Under normal working conditions the furnace will exhaust the carbon monoxide through a flue or exhaust pipe to the outside of the home. If the flue or pipe breaks, cracks or rusts, carbon monoxide will contaminate the air.
Also, over time heat exchanger of a furnace may crack and cause carbon monoxide to leak into the air being circulated throughout the home.
Since carbon monoxide poisoning can result in death, we recommend that only experienced professionals repair or replace damaged heat exchangers and to help keep you safe a carbon monoxide detector should be installed near the bedrooms of your home and its batteries checked regularly. If a leak is detected the furnace should be shut off immediately.
