Re: Buy now and save
Everyone should have one of these or something similar. Not only is it a rule now, but it may save your life or the life of the people pitted next to you. Some good friends of mine almost died in their living quarters trailer several years ago. They had a proper generator compartment and everything. The carbon monoxide was hanging under the trailer on a foggy humid night and it came into the living quarters. His wife just happen to wake up and felt bad. She promptly woke him up and they got out. The EMT's told them they were lucky they got out alive. They had carbon monoxide poisoning.
NHRA needs to make sure they enforce this rule. I for one, don't want to pit next to someone that isn't using some sort of stack. |
Re: Buy now and save
I agree they make all these rules no one to inforce them.Yhis is a great unit

Re: Buy now and save
THIS IS NO SPECIAL DEAL maybe for Camping World which is way overpriced anyway--Going price at MOST ANY non camper/motorhome dealer is in the $124-134 price range-- if they have it in stock NO shipping charges----Ya can make one with a little ingenuity for less than 2 hours of your time and about $20-30---- YES everyone needs something like this ----Comp

Re: Buy now and save
What a deal! Only $47 more than from Amazon and you have to join their worthless club. If you buy anything from them you can be sure you paid too much.:)

Re: Buy now and save
A carbon monoxide detector should be standard fair in anyones trailer. The amount of generators running at any given time is enormous. Even with the stacks there are some areas that seem to the exhaust just seems to linger. Joe

Re: Buy now and save
Problem with these is that they don't work on the best and one of the most popular generators, the Honda EU series. They are the quietest, most efficient generators out there, but don't render themselves easily to the vent stack.
|
Re: Buy now and save
according to NHRA the only generators(RV types) that need to be vented are those in a "compartment"---the generators(portable type with like a Honda/B&S engine) that are on the ground or front drawbar are for the time being not being addressed--2nd the idea of a CO monitor in ALL trailers/campers/RV/Motorhomes whether at the track or just camping---Cheap insurance---MIGHT SAVE SOMEBODIES LIFE

Re: Buy now and save
Had a CO2 detector in our trailer, took it out. Went off all the time. Maybe it was a cheap brand, maybe old, maybe too much CO2 at a race track. Who knows.

Re: Buy now and save
Chris, the original one in our trailer went off like that ....bought a name brand replacement problem solved. Joe

Re: Buy now and save
If your CO2 detector is going off all the time. It needs to be replaced, they sample air non stop. Once they collect so much polution they can no loinger make the distinction. Spraying fabreeze and the like, shortens the life of a CO2 detector substantialy. So in all likelyhood, you just needed to replace it, I would not just delete it. You can get a new one on ebay or other auction sites for a fair price. What is your familys lives worth?

Re: Buy now and save
Guys its a CO-- Carbon MONOXIDE not a CO2 --Carbon DIOXIDE detector!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Big Difference---comp |

Re: Buy now and save
I agree placement is important but I think it would be difficult to put an exhaust extension on some of them as well as looking pretty stupid with a 10 foot pipe sticking up in the air and not attached to anything

Re: Buy now and save
My CO detector also kept going off. Sent it in and got a free replacement.......new one does the same thing......I removed it....No generator was running when the thing was going off and it was going off at night after I was trying to sleep.....I think the brand was CCI...
|
Re: Buy now and save
We don't sleep at the track, so the CO detector wasn't vital to us. But I can understand why others need it.

Re: Buy now and save
Same story here,our CO detector in the toter was going off all the time and was told to replace it as Jeff said these do go bad.
I did find out that these detectors are date coded so be sure you are getting a fairly NEW built one !!! Doug Wesler S/C 3703 S/G 3703 |
Re: Buy now and save
Most CO detectors sound off in codes that can be found in the directions. Keep in mind that any fuel fired appliances produce CO, stoves, refrigerators, heaters etc. The activation source may be coming from within your unit and the only way to be sure is to have someone take readings. If that is not available, the only safe thing to do is completely ventilate the unit and shut off all appliances until they can be tested.

Re: Buy now and save
I bought one a couple of years ago works great.

Re: Buy now and save
If suspect you are having problems with your CO detecter going off when it should not be and dont know if its really CO or a bad dector. Try this.
Goto your local fire department and ask them if they will run their CO test equiptment through your Toter/Trailer/RV. Have them do it with and without your generator and any LP appliaces running as it would be at the track ( IE if you use a genturi type device have it on) My local FD did mine for free. |
