Answer
Not sure if I understand your question. If you mean the display (if yours has one) that should read 0, unless you are testing it with the test button. My NightHawk model 900-0014-04 reads 163 when the test button is pressed then sounds the alarm. Check the manual for your unit or look on the back of it for test instructions.

Most are calibrated for 200 PPM in less than 35 minutes and have an alarm response time of less than 90 minutes for a 100 PPM concentration of CO.

How do you find the level of carbon monoxide in the atmosphere?

ppm?


Answer
It can only be detected by a scientific meter specific to finding CO. A blood gases test also shows its presence.
As it is odorless and tasteless you need a detector to warn you before medical symptoms occur. The normal level is 0 ppm. The symptoms mimic a bad cold or flu. If everyone in the house, even the pets, are not acting normally, suspect CO.
