Great informative video! Just got one today because I put in a water heater and want to make sure it's not leaking any gas.

Just installed mine. Came here to make sure I did everything right. By the way, user guide says: “do not install within 5 ft. of cooking appliances to prevent nuisance alarms” :)

@@TomLeeman Was to write the same comment. Kidde state a minimum of 5 ft. But recommend actually 15 ft or more. I set mine as around 20 ft from the natural gas fireplace up from the ground on a small table. If you use a propane tank, it should be low to the ground to the more effective.

CO is Carbon monoxide. CO2 is carbon dioxide. This instrument detects CO (carbon monoxide).
