A house carbon monoxide detector has a 0-999ppm meter, Dont know how this will corrospond with percentage of CO though. I duct taped one to my expantion tank opening to see if I was getting any CO in my exhaust. I cut open a 1 gallon milk jug and placed it inside and then taped it shut and to the tank opening. Then Iplugged in the extention cord and waited. No CO was present.Do you suppose one could place a meter near the exhaust and get an accurate ppm of CO, without melting the detector? |
