Our main CO2/Propane detector went into default mode this weekend. According to the code, it is in need of replacement. Is 6 years old. We didn't realize these wear out. What makes this one so expensive, is that it also controls a shut off valve for the propane if it detects anything.

We just lost a friend to CO2 a few months ago, so as a public service message, please make sure yours are still good to go!!!

Wow! I don’t think mine has a shut off but that would be awesome!

This is so so important. We have a friend here locally who’s family survived CO poisoning. Something in their new house wasn’t properly hooked up/vented. Luckily it was day time and his wife recognized something was wrong and got herself and daughter out before it was too late and called him. I am not entirely sure based on their experience that even if an alarm went off you wouldn’t already be too incapacitated...

I bought a regular detector that I keep up in the nose with me after someone pulled into a rodeo in the middle of the night and plunked their generator right in front of my trailer nose! I sleep with a window open too. Don’t be that idiot please!!! I was furious. I got the second detector because I wasn’t sure the built in one, which down by the floor at the door, would pick it up in time if it was coming in via the nose...
