Angst Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 (edited) Yesterday I bought a carbon monoxide alarm. I had been experiencing a headache and thought that I had better check my boiler. I installed batteries into the alarm. A green light pulsates every 30 seconds to signify operation. But I wonder if I had bought a faulty machine and I am tempted to buy another machine as a failsafe. I am worried about my health/life and that of my neighbours. Recently my sister and her husband plus two guests had carbon monoxide poisoning with two of them unconscious. My headache has gone and the boiler has operated for five hours today.

PolarBear Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 You can buy another one but what if it does Nothing? Are you then going to buy a third? A fourth? Link to comment
Angst Posted December 4, 2017 Author Share Posted December 4, 2017 Thanks for the reply. I think you are right as checking begets more checking. Came across a nice quote - ‘Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is an absurd one.’ Voltaire. Link to comment
