Place carbon monoxide alarms in living areas
During warmer temperatures and temperatures normally found indoors, carbon monoxide is lighter than air. This warmer condition and the air movements within the building suggest that the placement of CO alarms should be higher on a wall and off of near floor locations. This lighter than air condition, building pressures and the lifestyle of people all play a factor in the placement of protective CO alarms and the number of them to be used.
When in a camper, caravan, tent, vacation cabin or some other small, temporary living quarters, and you are using fuel for lighting or cooking be careful. It is a good idea to have a carbon monoxide alarm with you. Don’t wish you had. Bob Dwyer, CSME Carbon Monoxide Safety
