Comment on My CO2 / Smoke Detector Scared a Year off my life today, and I have questions. Long.

How weird, I’ve never seen that configuration. Today I learned. I just wanted to add that in case anyone read that and thought their living space was unsafe with a combination detector. The EPA says to put them, if they are CO specific, to put them about eye level from the floor, or on the ceiling.
