Since I posted recently that a friend of a friend died this year from CO

I am wondering if CO alarms should be mandatory....or does a standard
smoke alarm also warn the occupants of CO

They are mandatory in most new homes, smart people have them in their
older homes too.


That's good of course but they should be mandatory in existing homes as
well. I'd think the older homes would be more likely to have problems


They do make dual smoke/CO alarms but a standard smoke alarm does
nothing to help.
