We have a radon detector that was used to test the radon level in the basement. Can we use it to get an accurate reading for carbon monoxide level instead of using a carbon monoxide detector? Thank you.


Answer
I don't think so. There is a carbon monoxide circular device that is aliken to the fire alarm circular device you attach to the ceiling in your home. They say this cm device should be placed by your windows as well as in your garage and bedroom. I heard they are about $20 each at Home Depot. In my humble opinion you don't need to know the "levels" what you need to know is when it's there and to leave promptly upon hearing the alarm. Btw, radon can be present in rooms that rarely have the windows open as it gets trapped. So as I understand it, it's around, just don't harness it.

Where do I need to put these smoke detectors in my house?

I have three for each room. Do I need to place them in the center of the room or right at the doorway? I also got 1 carbon monoxide detector, where in the house do i need it. Do i also need one in the garage above the water heater?


Answer
You should put them at the doorway
