If my carbon monoxide dectector goes off how would I know if theres really something wrong or if the batteries just need to be changed?
Answer
The detector only detects gas The battery alarm is similar to a smoke detector low battery, alarm which is an intermediate chirp, when the it detects gas it goes off very loud, and continuous.
Carbon monoxide is odorless, Humans can't smell it and if you feel head rushy or light headed very good indicator of being poisoned. If you don't get out at that sign the next is passing out after your out
in the continued presence of the gas death will follow. You just won't wake back up.
So if it goes off You immediately open doors and windows and get out call 911 and state you have a carbon monoxide leak.
If you have gas appliances the risk is a lot higher for poisoning
hope it helps

Does a carbon monoxide detector detect gas leaks from a stove?

Answer
No it doesn't. Two different gases. The gas leak you're talking about is of natural gas (methane) and CO detector detects carbon monoxide produced by incomplete burning of the natural gas.
