carbon monoxide detectors portable image
Beth K
I will be needing a generator to run the electrical power/AC for a small RV. What are some brands and models to look for that are reliable and affordable, what to stay away from?
Answer
A generator is great to have. Without it, you are going to be pretty limited on what you can use in your RV... like a fridge, TV, A/C, etc.
The most important things that I think of in buying a generator for an RV is:
How quiet is the generator?
Does it start easily?
How much current does it put out?
How large is the fulltank / how often are you goint to need to refuel it?
I'd suggest you head out to a RV and/or lawnmower type store and talk to a salesperson about what you need. Bring the RV if possible, and you can see about getting the fit right and connectors you might need.
Safety first! Always keep in mind when you use a generator there is carbon monoxide. You should always inspect the exhaust system on the generator set before using it. Do not operate a generator with a damaged exhaust system. If you're using a portable generator set make sure the exhaust is directed away from the camping area. Test your carbon monoxide detector for proper operation prior to using the generator. Never run a generator when you or anyone else is sleeping. Observe campground etiquette. Do not run your generator after quiet hours.
Thanks, Brad

tool calibration for home inspection for AC and heating?

how often does carbon monoxide detector need to be calibrated for people in home inspection field
and also are their any gov. regulations that has these inspectors and or companys maintain and certify their insp, equip.
Answer
So people coming to this question after the fact, here's what we're talking about. A carbon monoxide detector measures air quality to detect and indicate any carbon monoxide (CO) concentration in the air, furnace flues, or boilers. They are used by home inspectors, and by those who perform burner energy testing, furnace and boiler servicing, environmental emissions monitoring and indoor air quality (IAQ) testing.
Most sensor manufacturers specify the calibration frequency of their instruments, however this can vary greatly with different environments and applications. The simplest answer to this question is you should calibrate as often as necessary to insure that your system is working properly. Usually it is advisable to track the response of new sensors more frequently until you understand how that particular sensor responds to your environment and application. A calibration log can then be used to gauge whether to shorten or lengthen the frequency of calibration. Also, a sensor should always be calibrated after a traumatic exposure, i.e., dropped in mud, left in a pickup truck on a hot day, etc. Portable instruments usually require more frequent calibrations than fixed systems.
