-Locate a CO alarm in a room containing a flueless or open-flued appliance, and

-Locate an alarm in a room where the occupant(s) spend most of their time (e.g. sitting room) and

-In a bedsit, the CO alarm should be placed as far away from the cooking appliance as possible, but near to where the person sleeps and

-If the appliance is in a room not normally used, such as a boiler room, the CO alarm should be placed just outside the room so that the alarm will be heard more easily.
