Where to Install Your CO Alarm
Your Kidde CO alarm should be mounted in or near bedrooms and living
areas. It is recommended that you install a Kidde CO alarm on each level of a
multi-level home. You may use the number and location of smoke alarms
installed in your home according to current building code requirements as a
guide to the location of your Kidde CO alarm(s).
