CO Detectors - Why Can't I Buy One!?!

Glenn Harrison_2

is so strict on who they sell their CO detector to is that there is a certain amount of training that should go along with their detector, so that anyone selling it knows howto interpret, respond, and test when the dtector is showing low levels. Low level CO can sometimes be very tricky to diagnose.

Now, you can go to

http://www.aeromedix.com/index.php?_siteid=aeromedix&action=cat&catid=co&_sessid=d6bf2c07e1ba0c7498eca0013c6a2da1

and purchase the CO Experts detector in individual quantities. The CO Experts is a little less sensitive than the NCI 3000, but it is still a low level CO Detector.

If CO is so dangerous...

Why can't I buy a good detector?

I want to purchase an NCI 3000 but I have to find a magic key or talk to a stone mason to be allowed to buy one. Why is this?

My wife spent the weekend working in an office building that had a roof leak that resulted in some mold grow. She was told the smell was from the mold. After spending 3 hours working in her office on Saturday, she goes into work this morning to find everyone in the parking lot because the building's CO level is at 150-200 ppm. I am flipped out by the news and want to buy her (and our home) a nice NCI 3000 detector but everywhere I look tells me that I can't buy one unless I find a certain HVAC contractor. Since when to we hide our safety products from the public by adding an extra middle man? I don't get it.

Is there another comparable detector out there that I am actually allowed to purchase?

Chuck, try this site. George Kerr may be able to locate a seller for you where you can just purchse one or two. I sell sell them but currently I only offer them in case lots.

Thanks all for the replies! I don't mean to be so testy, but this has me a little worked up. At first the fire department came, checked it out and said "Not our problem, you may want to call your gas company" so the people kept working inside.

Then the gas company comes, shuts off the furnace and is getting readings well above 200 ppm in all the offices. One woman who works there is in her 60s and was there for a good part of the day. If the office below her hadn't caled, she was going to wait it out a week to see if the landlord could take care of the mold on the weekend. It's a little scary.

Thanks again for the link! I appreciate the help!

I second the link to Aeromedix

Here is a slightly easier to use link to click on. I admit, my best friend was a bit surprised to receive one of these for his baby shower, but the service from Aeromedix was prompt, the delivery to myself and my friend qucik, etc. I highly recommend that site and the CoExperts detector.

How do you get the link to be hypertext here?

To insert a link,

use the same text you would if you were writing a HTML page. That means typing something following this format:

<a href="http://www.YourSite.com">Text you want to appear as underlined link</a>

Note: The http:// part is important, as it tells the browser to look for the linked info on the internet, not just Dans website.
