Carbon Monoxide Alarms

Carbon Monoxide (CO) is an odourless, tasteless and colourless dangerous gas, which is produced by the incomplete burning of fossil fuels, such as gas, wood and coal. Carbon Monoxide is known as the ‘silent killer’ due to it being extremely difficult to detect.  

The installation of Carbon Monoxide alarms measures and detects the level of Carbon Monoxide gas in the air. The British Standard BS EN 50292:2013 recommends Carbon Monoxide alarms be installed and maintained in every room with fuel-burning appliances and rooms where people sleep. Detect Carbon Monoxide and protect your premises from Carbon Monoxide poisoning with our innovative range of CO alarms.
