CO accumulates in pockets in the home. Levels that are negligible in one area of the home may be deadly in others. Take no chances.

Thanks for that Shootie!

I have one CO detector and will get one for each bedroom.

The one I have now measures the CO rather than just sounding an alarm when levels reach critical levels. These are more accurate from what I have been told.

Thanks for the heads up on the Lennox furnace. I am building a new home and will avoid these.

My first experience with Carbon Monoxide poisoning was years ago when I was a professional student at the University of Alabama in Birmingham. There were some students in our neighborhood which decided to heat their apartment by burning charcoal in a grill. Now this is the strange part: I believe they were pharmacy students! A friend of mine pulled them out of the apartment. I don't believe there were any lasting effects in their case. Considering the chemistry requirements to get into pharmacy school it still has me scratching my head.
