Although carbon monoxide has a similar density
as the ambient air, it is normally expelled as part
of a hot gas mixture and therefore tends to
ascend until it cools down�
Assemble CO alarms in rooms containing a heating
appliance
• at a height above windows and doors
• at least 300 mm from a wall and 150 mm from the
ceiling
• at a distance of between 1 and 3 m to potential sources
of carbon monoxide
Do not assemble CO alarms
• near a window or door because fresh air flowing in
could cause a delay in the alarm triggering
• in the direct vicinity of a cooking area
• in closed containers or concealed areas
• in the vicinity of extractor fans
• in wet or damp areas
• directly above sources of heat
• outside the permissible ambient conditions (refer to
