DID YOU KNOW?

Could you be at risk of carbon monoxide poisoning?

Carbon monoxide is odourless and invisible — you can't see it or smell it. Find out how to spot the risks and protect yourself.

akt has partnered with the Cadent Foundation to help young people stay safe, warm and in control of their energy. These resources are here to give you practical advice — whether you're managing bills for the first time or want to make sure your home is safe.
