"I am sorely disappointed with this list and will take my questions 
elsewhere".

Mr. KTOT \(\g\),

To speak plainly, I believe that many people really have addressed your 
CO question and your battery question quite directly.
The broad answer to both questions, is for you to develop a working 
ventilation strategy.

Battery ventilation while equalizing is an imperative need.
Supplying regular changes of interior house air, exchanged with outdoor 
air, especially in the dead of Winter, is also an imperative. If opening 
a window is too chilling, running an HRV is not.

RT, Corwin, John Straube, and others have all offered extremely helpful 
advice, directing your attention to being more thoughtful, and going 
deeper in your inquiry about your own house system of ventilation.
As the owner of your home, you are certainly empowered to receive this 
advice.
And, at the same time, you have every right to ignore it.
