IQ - Carbon Monoxide
Overview
The Carbon Monoxide detector offers life-saving protection from Carbon Monoxide. As a life-saving device particular attention should be made when determining the best location for the sensor.
Carbon monoxide gas is a highly poisonous gas which is released when fuels are burned. It is invisible, has no smell and is therefore impossible to detect with the human senses. When fuel burning appliances are operating correctly, Carbon Monoxide levels should be minimal.
Note: DO NOT install in commercial accounts.
