Regulatory Information for CO Alarms (Continued)

IMPORTANT: CO alarms are designed to alarm before there is an immediate life threat.

Since you cannot see or smell CO, never assume it’s not present. An exposure to 100

ppm of CO for 20 minutes may not aect average, healthy adults but after 4 hours the

same level may cause headaches. An exposure to 400 ppm of CO may cause headaches

in average, healthy adults after 35 minutes, but can cause death after 2 hours.

Standards

Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Single and Multiple Station carbon monoxide alarms UL2034. According to Underwriters

Laboratories Inc. UL2034, Section 1-1.2: “Carbon monoxide alarms covered by these requirements are intended to respond to

the presence of carbon monoxide from sources such as, but not limited to, exhaust from internal-combustion engines, abnormal

operation of fuel-ﬁred appliances, and ﬁreplaces. CO Alarms are intended to alarm at carbon monoxide levels below those

that could cause a loss of ability to react to the dangers of Carbon Monoxide exposure.” This CO Alarm monitors the air at the

Alarm, and is designed to alarm before CO levels become life threatening. This allows you precious time to leave the house

and correct the problem. This is only possible if Alarms are located, installed, and maintained as described in this manual.

Gas Detection at Typical Temperature and Humidity Ranges

The CO Alarm is not formulated to detect CO levels below 30 ppm typically. Tested for false alarm resistance to

Methane (500 ppm), Butane (300 ppm), Heptane (500 ppm), Ethyl Acetate (200 ppm), Isopropyl Alcohol (200

ppm) and Carbon Dioxide (5000 ppm). Values measure gas and vapor concentrations in parts per million.

Audible Alarm

85 dB minimum at 10 feet (3 meters).

This carbon monoxide alarming device is designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from ANY source of combustion,

It is NOT designed to detect smoke, ﬁre, or any other gases.

Regulatory Information for Smoke Alarms

Installing Smoke Alarms in Single-Family Residences

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), recommends one Smoke Alarm on every ﬂoor, in every sleeping area,

and in every bedroom. In new construction, the Smoke Alarms must be AC powered and interconnected. See “Agency

Placement Recommendations” for details. For additional coverage, it is recommended that you install a Smoke Alarm in

all rooms, halls, storage areas, ﬁnished attics, and basements, where temperatures normally remain between 40˚ F (4.4˚

C) and 100˚ F (37.8˚ C). Make sure no door or other obstruction could keep smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarms.

For your information, the National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code, NFPA 72, reads as follows:

Required Detection. Where required by applicable laws, codes, or standards for a speciﬁc type of

occupancy, approved single- and multiple-station smoke alarms shall be installed as follows:

• In all sleeping rooms and guest rooms

• Outside of each separate dwelling unit sleeping area, within 21 ft (6.4 m) of any door to a sleeping room,

the distance measured along a path of travel
