Protect Your Family: Low-Level CO Monitor FAQs
At CO Experts, we understand that keeping your family safe is your top priority. Carbon monoxide (CO) is an invisible, odorless gas that poses serious health risks, especially to young children and the elderly. Our mission is to educate and empower families like yours by offering reliable, accurate low-level CO monitors that protect against even the smallest traces of carbon monoxide.
Watch the video below to see how our low-level monitors work and why they’re essential for low-level CO monitoring in your home.
Here are the answers to some of the most common questions about our low-level CO monitors and how they help keep your family safe.
1. What is Carbon Monoxide, and Why is it Dangerous?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless gas produced by burning fuel in cars, stoves, fireplaces, furnaces, and more. In high levels, it’s deadly. Even in low levels, carbon monoxide can cause symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and fatigue, which are particularly harmful to young children and elderly family members. Unlike standard alarms that only alert you when CO levels are high, CO Experts' low-level CO monitors begin alerting at extremely low and accurate thresholds, giving you time to react early.

2. Why Should I add a Low-Level CO Monitor for the best protection?
Most standard CO detectors / alarms only sound when CO levels reach a high concentration (around 70 ppm or higher) and after prolonged exposure. Low-level CO Monitors from CO Experts sense CO at much lower levels (as low as 7 ppm), warning you of even minimal amounts that can accumulate in the bloodstream over time. This early detection is essential for households with infants, young children, elderly individuals, and those with respiratory issues who are more vulnerable to the effects of CO.
