CO ALARM
The fitting of CO Alarms in the same room as the
appliance is a compulsory requirement under cur-
rent Building Regulations. For ROI an additional CO
Alarm must be fitted either inside each bedroom or
within 5 metres of the bedroom door, refer to
Building Regulations Part J. Further guidance on the
installation of a carbon monoxide alarm is available
in BS EN 50292:2002 and from the alarm manufac-
turers instructions.
Provision of an alarm must not be considered a
substitute for either installing the appliance
correctly or ensuring regular servicing and
maintenance of the appliance and chimney
system.
WARNING:-
If the CO Alarm sounds unexpectedly:-
1. Open Doors and windows to ventilate the
room and then leave the premises.
