Also.. I must add... Even though this MTI Detector is a LP & CO detector I
also opted to ad a separate battery operated CO Detector that you can also
get from amazon or home depot etc.

My thinking on the matter...

LP is heavier than air so it will accumulate down low near the floor. I
have the MTI detector mounted down low.

CO is lighter than air so it will accumulate up high near the ceiling. I
have the separate battery operated CO detector mounted up high next to my
stock Westfalia rear speakers.

Some people say there's no need to take this extra step that I've taken but
I feel much safer in doing so... definitely worth the extra $20 for a
dedicated CO detector up high.

Abel.
