Does a carbon monoxide monitor detect carbon dioxide?

Detectors for carbon monoxide will not pick up freon. They can't "see" this refrigerant gas and won't work in that application. Leak (freon) detectors for the HVAC trade are priced fairly appropriately. Look for a used unit on eBay or craigslist, or run a want ad.

A carbon monoxide detector in a basement should be installed away from your furnace and water heater. Both of these put off a small amount of CO in regular use and may create false alarms. More importantly, you should have these detectors installed in your living areas, such as hallways and bedrooms where an alarm will be legitimate and heard.

They should be near bedrooms and the cold air return for the HVAC system. Carbon Monoxide is an odorless and colorless gas. The issue would become even worse should you be asleep. I have one placed near the bedrooms. I also have one in the Kitchen. They also make little button detectors for your automobiles. I have one in all of my cars and in the plane. The symptoms of monoxide poisoning are similar to getting the flu. That is part of what makes this so problematic. If you have a monoxide leak in your home, you can start having flu like issues. The tendency is to stay home and get better. Unfortunately, this means to get more monoxide and get sicker. It is possible to die from Carbon monoxide poisoning.


What is hazardous commodity description?

When they say "hazardous commodity" they're usually talking about hazardous materials in bulk. The first thing that comes to my mind is carbon monoxide in a tube trailer. Most people think, "carbon monoxide? Why would you want THAT?" Carbon monoxide has a lot of uses in the chemical industry, and it's a good fuel...so there's a lot of carbon monoxide going down the roads in trailers. The problem with it is, it's highly flammable and very toxic to boot. It is therefore a Hazardous Material, and in trade it is a Hazardous Commodity. OTOH, if you were to put carbon monoxide in cylinders and put the cylinders in a truck, it becomes a hazardous packaged good.
