DETAILS ON CO ALARM INSTALLATION AS STATED IN ANNEX B OF
IN WHICH ROOM TO PUT THE ALARM:
Ideally, you should have an alarm in or near every room that contains a fuel burning appliance.
However, if you have more than one appliance, but only one alarm, you should take the following into consideration when deciding where best to put the alarm.
If there is an appliance in the room where you sleep, you should put the alarm in that room.
If there is an appliance in a room that you use a lot eg. sitting room, you should put it in that room.
If you live in a bedsit, put the alarm as far away from the cooking appliances as possible, but near to the place where you sleep.
If the appliance is in a room not normally used (eg. boiler room) put the alarm just outside the room so that you will be able to hear the alarm more easily.
