You might want to Google "CO Experts". The principal is a maverick CO
engineer. He has designed a CO detector which puts the rest to shame;
it registers down to 2 ppm, will alert at much lower concentrations, and
stores the time since and concentration of last "significant CO"! True,
it's about $200, but cheap 'real' insurance, imho. Any CO detector will
typically give you about 15 min advance warning in a house fire, over
smoke detectors. I have one, and several of the over-the-counter
detectors. ( The CO Experts unit is about as sensitive as my testing CO
detector.)
