Derek Cole explains why ceiling-mounted CO alarms are dangerous. Carbon monoxide is odorless and deadly, so CO detectors need to be placed low on walls near the floor to catch it early, not up high where combination fire and CO alarms typically go.
We've been to so many homes and with the CO alarm and the fire alarm combo are up in the ceiling. That is the problem. CO is carbon monoxide. That's a very dangerous deadly gas. You don't know what's in the house unless you have a CO alarm. CO is slightly lighter than air. The problem is when it gets very high or it gets too high, it starts mixing with air and kind of dilutes it. By the time it gets that far up. The best place for a SEAL alarm is on the wall at floor level so it can detect something starts to go wrong because you can't smell it, you can't see it, you can't feel it. You can just not wake up. They call it a silent color for a reason. You don't know what's happening. So if you have a gas appliance in the house, you need a CO alarm. Make sure it's located in the right place.
