Why You Need Carbon Monoxide Detectors

While most homes have smoke detectors, not all houses have carbon monoxide detectors – although they should. These devices are essential to keeping your family safe and healthy.

Without an alarm, your household can be at risk of severe health issues if you have a carbon monoxide leak. These odorless gasses can go undetected until it’s too late, and your family is suffering from symptoms.

Instead, these carbon monoxide detectors can alert you and your family to the gas leak so you can evacuate the house. Ensure your device is functional and up to date with carbon monoxide detector replacement services. Call E.F. Winslow Home Services to book an appointment!

How To Test Your Carbon Monoxide Detectors

Make sure your carbon monoxide detector works by testing it regularly. Some tasks you can perform are:

Test the batteries: At least once a month, press the “test” button on the device to ensure it triggers an alert. You should perform this test more often in winter if you use gas heat.

Use a test kit: Purchase a kit to test the detector’s accuracy. The kit will include a canister of carbon monoxide so you can expose the device to high gas levels. If the alarm sounds, then you know the device is working correctly.

Protect your appliances and electronics by installing whole-house surge protectors. Call our electricians for services.

Types of Carbon Monoxide Detectors

You can install numerous types of carbon monoxide detectors in your house. Some common types our E.F. Winslow Home Services electricians often install in Yarmouth, MA, are:

Digital: These display the current and previous carbon monoxide levels.

Hardwired: These connect directly to your building’s power supply. They also include a battery backup in the case of a power outage.

AC plug-in: These plug into outlets in your home, making them one of the more convenient options.

Combined smoke and carbon monoxide detectors: These have smoke and carbon monoxide sensors, so you can install one device instead of two.
