Carbon Monoxide detector positioning

PostBy: av8r On: Mon Dec 10, 2007 4:17 pm

Was looking around at where to place CO detectors and found this:

So I guess I'll put one in an outlet and one near the ceiling in the main room where the stove is.

Thoughts?

Just as long as you have one. Any house running a coal stove or not should have one. Burning NG, LP or fuel oil carbon monoxide is a by product. I have one in basement and dual (smoke/CO) in all bedrooms and hallways.
