Modern CO alarms are similar in design to smoke alarms (which do not detect CO) and can be purchased from around £15 at many major retail outlets including DIY stores and supermarkets. 

It’s advisable to fit a CO2 alarm in every room with a gas appliance, and when installing and siting the alarm make sure you refer to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Typically, audible CO alarms have a battery life of up to 5 years. If you’re unsure which alarm to get, get in touch and ASL Plumbing & Heating can assist.
