Thanks.
Just a little to add, from someone that has spent years confined space gas testing,testing monitors and recalibrating and calibrating monitors ( nobody died on my watch)........there may be manufacture dates on your monitors, regardless if you do not know when they were changed ( 5 years max i believe for marine) , throw them out and replace with new ones that have some better tech...maybe ones that have a resettable high digital readout. Carbon monoxide monitors have a list interferences and one thing everyone can know ,is if you think your monitors have ever been subjected to high amounts of CO , I would replace them pronto.
I have replaced all mine with the portable ones with readouts, my personal preference, that IMO removes all the doubt about wiring/batteries etc etc......you would be shocked at the numbers you see.You can always get new hardwired Marine specific ones if that is what you want or feel is right for you and your family.There are some nice ones out there now I believe, but do your homework.
Please be safe with this. The more false alarms you get the less you trust your instruments....rant over..

Re: CO Detectors
Sounds like yours may be a weak battery also.
