Carbon dioxide detectors are generally not in use in houses. These locations have detectors for Carbon Monoxide (Carbon Dioxides's toxic relative) and Smoke. They are generally put in proximity to bedrooms as areas where a family might spend a significant time. they should be mains powered or battery powered but if battery powered the calls should be replaced at regular intervals
