How to Install a Smoke or Carbon Monoxide Detector

Once a fire starts, it can grow and spread quickly, filling the house with smoke. Carbon monoxide, however, can pose a threat without you even knowing it. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, toxic gas that can come from faulty combustion in appliances like furnaces and water heaters. CO is very dangerous because it replaces the oxygen in the air, making it difficult to breathe. To keep your home safe, install a combination smoke/carbon monoxide detector-alarm on every level of your house.

Our electrician installed this Kidde combo smoke\CO alarm in the hallway just outside our 3 bedroooms on the second floor. He also installed a smoke detector in the basement, first floor and attic. They are all wire and communicate with eack other. I wonder why he installed the smoke\CO combo just on the second floor and not in the other locations? I would think a CO alarm should have been installed in the basement since that is where the furnace and hot water tank is located.
