A few years ago, I kept getting sick anytime I went to downstairs to work in the basement. I joked that it was a CO leak, and figured my headaches and exhaustion were just from getting stressed.
It was carbon monoxide. Turns out the person who had come to work on our furnace accidentally detached the vent or something of the sort. We got off lucky.
Make sure you have CO detectors.
The one I had gotten didn't give a readout and she thought it was defective as she couldn't reset it or turn it off. She had a mild headache, so finally did call the fire department and they told her the CO was so high that even if she had been able to go to work that morning, she would not have woken up after going to sleep the next night.
It turned out that her downstairs roommate/tenant had used the fireplace (in spite of being told not to use it) and the CO was coming from there.

I didn't yet look at the included 9V battery expiration dates, I didn't think about it and wasn't particularly worried about that since the units seem to work and eventually I'll get new batteries for them as needed.
So not amazingly old but not super newly made either.
