9.0 ALARM MOUNTING LOCATIONS

This CO alarm may be mounted on the wall or

ceiling.

WALL LOCATION: Locate the top of the

alarm at least 5-6’ feet from the floor.

CEILING LOCATION: Alarm should be

mounted as close as possible to the center of a

hallway or room. If this is not possible, the

edge of the alarm should be at least 4 inches

from any wall

9.1 LOCATIONS TO AVOID: Nuisance

alarms are caused by placing units where they

will not operate properly. To avoid

nuisance alarms, do not place units:

– Within 5 feet (1.5m) of any cooking

appliance or furnace.

– Near an open window or door, because

the fresh air entering the opening may delay

CO from reaching the alarm.

– In damp or very humid areas or next to

bathrooms with showers.

– In very cold or very hot environments

or in unheated buildings or outdoor rooms

where the temperature can go below or above

the operating range of the alarm.

– Good ventilation is recommended when

household cleaning supplies or similar conta-

minant's are used.

9.2 CONDITIONS WHICH CAN RESULT

IN TEMPORARY CO SITUATIONS:

Excessive spillage or reverse venting of fuel

burning appliances caused by outdoor ambient

conditions, such as:

1 Wind direction and/or velocity, includ-

ing high gusts of wind. Heavy air in the vent

pipes (cold/humid air with extended periods

between cycles).

2 Negative pressure differential resulting

from the use of exhaust fans.

3 Simultaneous operation of several fuel

burning appliances competing for limited

internal air.
