How to Choose a Carbon Monoxide Alarm*
The experts at Kidde recommend choosing CO alarms that have the most accurate sensing technology available. CO alarms are designed to alert the homeowner when carbon monoxide levels have begun to accumulate over a period of time, and will alarm before most people would experience any CO poisoning symptoms. The more accurate the alarm, the greater chance a family will respond appropriately to the problem.
Placement & Maintenance
Below are recommendations on the optimal placement of your CO alarms:
Install at least one CO alarm on every floor and in sleeping areas.
Make sure CO alarms are at least 15 feet away from cooking or heating appliances to prevent false alarms.
Don't cover or obstruct the unit. Test the CO alarm monthly.
Replace CO alarms every 7 years to benefit from the latest technology upgrades.
