Carbon monoxide (CO) detectors can be used as a backup but not as a replacement for proper use and maintenance of your fuel-burning appliances. CO detector technology is still being developed and the detectors are not generally considered to be as reliable as the smoke detectors found in homes today.

The CO sensor itself is considered to be the most likely component to fail, with a limited lifetime of up to 5 years.  This is of huge concern as an estimated 50% of all detectors installed in the UK and US are over 5 years old.  If your CO alarm is over 5 years old it is strongly recommended that you replace it.

The Detectagas CO Health Monitor & Alarm will be available through this website shortly.  If you would like to be informed of availability, please click here.
