I recently had a debate with a person who shall remain nameless and owns a purple car. We disagreed on the most common time to change smoke alarm batteries. Please participate in this poll to help prove that I am right. If you do not wish to participate - please accept this as a reminder to take a few minutes to check the batteries in your smoke alarms to protect your home and family.

Thanks - Pam

Should I have a CO2 detector on each level?
I have a DV propane fireplace/stove on each level.

Is it worth having the leak detector? I've been told I'll smell it (leak, not CO2, you can't smell CO2) before it goes off.

I've been told by a friend of mine that used to be a fire-marshall and fire investigation specialist that CO2 detectors should be in EVERY BEDROOM.
