Common sense tells us that leaving our pets or children inside a parked vehicle on a hot, summer day could be dangerous after an extended period of time. However, most of us don't realize that the temperature can skyrocket after just a few minutes. Parking in the shade or leaving the windows cracked does little help. On a warm, sunny day windows collect light, trapping heat inside the vehicle, and pushing the temperature inside to dangerous levels. On an 85-degree Fahrenheit day, the temperature inside a car with the windows opened slightly can reach 102 degrees within 10 minutes. After 30 minutes, the temperature will reach 120 degrees. At 110 degrees, pets are in danger of heatstroke. On hot and humid days, the temperature in a car parked in direct sunlight can rise more than 30 degrees per minute, and quickly become lethal.
Knowledge is power! The Auto Alert Tag is here to help! Leave the tag hanging from your rear view mirror. When the temperature inside the car gets above 85-degree Fahrenheit the heart of the Auto Alert Tags will turn from black to red and will display a "Heat Alert. Get Out" message. This indicates that no child and/or pet should be left inside the car REGARDLESS of whether or not a window remains somewhat open. |
