Drewhop Posted October 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 I have a two story split level house. About 2200 square feet not counting the garage which is 2 bay attached. Would I need two Carbon monoxide detectors one for near gas furnace and one in the garage? Or would three be recommended for one upstairs as well. Those fuckin things are expensive. 40 bucks.

rch10007 Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 The idea is to have a CM detector where CM may be present. You don't need them all over the house. SD's should be placed on each level near occupants. I would not put one directly in the kitchen. I burn food all the time and the one in my living room will go off! I put a SD and CM in the garage for obvious reasons like vehicles and flammable liquids... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVRINGS Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 I've yet to pick up a CM detector, but I havn't really thought about it much. The apartment I have has two different smoke detector each on different levels. As for fire power I have my Glock 9mm with two full clips of HD ammo on the 2nd level, and also I have two shotguns with slugs and some reg ammo to follow. If someone where to come into the apartment at night I dont' think I would care if they would take anything on the first floor, but they would be dead if they try coming up to the next floor.

TTQ B4U Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 Security system with wireless back up, internal and external sirens and lights and it's fully integrated with fire and carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide, we have one up in the hallway/cat-walk that goes across the great-room to the bedrooms....so it covers the whole first and second floor really..and we have one in the laundry/furnace/utility room in the basement. We did have the CM detector go off once in the basement due to a very, very low leak from our hot water heater. Good thing we had it though. Only bummer is that it set off the alarm system and the fucker is loud....I about shit my pants at 10pm that night. I think my son did I had smoke alarms wired into each bedroom, one in the dining room area...again, open floor plan so it covers the family room, and two in the basement...living and utility areas. I also have one in the garage. Two protective dogs and guns.....one on each floor...basement, family room and in the master bedroom. I have been known to keep one in the car but I'll deny it. Just wanted to see what some of the home owners thought on here. What do you do for home safety. Do you have a alarm system. (I dont wanna know exactly what you have) How many fire detectors. How many needed per square foot. How many Carbon Monoxide detectors. If so how many is needed per square foot. Fire extinguisher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
