Carbon Monoxide Detector
Model Safety Device
A dedicated CO alarm provides audible warning when carbon monoxide is detected. Placement and installation should follow local requirements and the manufacturer's instructions.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas produced by incomplete combustion. Fuel-burning furnaces, water heaters, fireplaces, ranges and other appliances can be potential sources when something goes wrong.
Working carbon monoxide alarms provide an important warning when CO is detected. They should be installed and maintained according to applicable codes and manufacturer instructions.
You cannot see or smell carbon monoxide. A properly placed detector is designed to alert occupants before exposure reaches dangerous levels.
Gas furnaces, water heaters, fireplaces and other combustion appliances can produce carbon monoxide if combustion or venting is not working correctly.
Follow the detector manufacturer's instructions for testing, battery replacement and end-of-life replacement.
If a carbon monoxide alarm sounds, follow emergency guidance and do not ignore or repeatedly reset the alarm.
