Section 915.3.1 of the Fire Code of New York State requires carbon monoxide detection to be installed in residential and commercial buildings in all rooms, occupiable space, dwelling units, sleeping areas and sleeping units that contain a fuel-burning appliance. Section 915.3 adds that all carbon monoxide detectors must be installed in locations that avoid dead air spaces, turbulent air spaces, fresh air returns, open windows, HVAC ducts, closed doors and other obstructions that could prevent carbon monoxide from reaching the detector, and that where the code and the device manufacturer disagree on location, the more restrictive governs.

The New York State Department of Health states that carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that can kill before a person is aware it is present, and that carbon monoxide exposure is the leading cause of death due to poisoning in the United States. It advises installing alarms and checking them twice a year, and scheduling annual maintenance for furnaces and other heat sources. It states that poisoning should be suspected where symptoms occur or worsen soon after a fuel-burning device is turned on, where more than one person in the area becomes ill at the same time, or where those who are ill feel better after leaving the area, and that anyone suspecting it should get everyone out into fresh air immediately and contact the fire department and the gas company or a heating contractor.

Where the alarm goes in a village that runs on gas
A village where five homes in six burn gas is a village where the boring questions earn their place. New York's Fire Code requires carbon monoxide detection in every room and dwelling space containing a fuel burning appliance, which in Fayetteville usually means the basement holding the furnace or boiler, and it rules out the two places people put alarms for convenience, beside a return air grille and in still air, because both can keep the gas away from the sensor. The state health department gives a pattern test worth knowing before you need it: suspect carbon monoxide when more than one person in the house becomes ill at the same time, when symptoms start or worsen soon after a fuel burning appliance switches on, or when they ease after leaving the building. If an alarm is sounding, the call is to emergency services and the gas utility, not to a quote form. The housing puts the venting in the frame as well. Four fifths of the village was built before 1980 and only one unit in twelve this century, so the typical Fayetteville house is on at least its second heating system fitted into venting designed for the first. The practical version of all this is short: on a gas heavy street, a vent check and a working alarm are maintenance, and a contractor who never mentions either is not being kind.
