However, if the number of CO Alarms is limited, the following points should be considered when
deciding where best to fit the alarm(s).
- If there is an appliance in a room where people sleep, place a CO Alarm in this room
- Locate a CO Alarm in a room containing a flueless or open-flued appliance
- Locate a CO Alarm in a room where the occupant(s) spend most of their time (e.g. living room)
- In a bedsit, the CO Alarm should be placed as far away from the cooking appliance as possible, but
near to where the occupant sleeps
- 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.
