Do I Need a Carbon Monoxide Detector?

Known as “The Silent Killer,” carbon monoxide poisoning can cause fatality in a matter of minutes. Any fuel-burning appliances (grills, stoves, water heaters, etc.) and vehicles can produce dangerous levels of carbon monoxide. CO detectors alert you of unusually high levels so you can evacuate your home and seek emergency help.

Know the Signs of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Never take a chance in your home. The most common symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include:

  • Dizziness
  • Headache
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Shortness of breath
  • Confusion
  • Blurred vision

If you or anyone in your home experiences these symptoms suddenly, evacuate your home right away. Scheduling routine furnace maintenance and checking your vents and chimney flue for blockage are ways to stay free of carbon monoxide leaks. But nothing will provide more peace of mind than having high-quality detectors professionally installed throughout your home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where should carbon monoxide detectors be placed?

We recommend installing CO detectors within 10 feet of every bedroom door. We also recommend installing detectors within your garage, kitchen, and furnace room, as well as the laundry room if you have a natural gas dryer and any room where you have a natural gas fireplace.

How do I know if I need a carbon monoxide detector?

Any home with a fuel-burning appliance should have CO detectors. This includes homes with gas furnaces, gas stoves/ovens, gas fireplaces, gas water heaters, or a natural gas dryer.

Do you need a carbon monoxide detector in every room?

No, you only need to install CO detectors in or near rooms with a natural gas appliance or heating system.

What are the different types of carbon monoxide detectors?

There are three kinds of CO detectors. Each works similarly to the other and will provide effective protection. Metal oxide detectors measure resistance change of the metal oxide, which happens as the absorption of gases occurs. Within biomimetic CO detectors, the encapsulated gel within the unit changes color as it absorbs carbon monoxide. This change triggers the processor to initiate the alarm. Finally, electrochemical CO detectors measure oxygen and CO levels. When the proportion falls below prescribed safety parameters, it triggers the alarm. 

What safety features to look for in carbon monoxide detectors?

Start with the accuracy level and UL listing. A high-quality CO detector should be certified by UL. You will also want to choose a unit that has a battery backup and can be interconnected with other CO detectors and smart home systems. 

What are signs of high carbon monoxide levels?

CO is odorless and colorless, so it’s important to know the physical signs that your home may have high CO levels. These include yellowish or brown stains around stoves and fireplaces, yellow flames on gas appliances, and smoke buildup within rooms.
