Introduction

This Kidde Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarm is an important part of your family’s home safety plan. Here are some basic facts you should know for your pro- tection and convenience

Carbon Monoxide

Carbon monoxide is invisible, odourless, tasteless, nonirritating, poisonous gas that is completely undetectable to your senses. It is created when any fuel is burned. When oxygen is limited during combustion, more CO is produced. Serious problems can develop when combustion by-products are not properly vented outside the house. That’s why it’s so important to your safety that you have a CO alarm.
