Is that gas odor a gas leak that could cause a gas explosion or fire ? The CCI GasAware natural gas alarm warns of methane gas leaks before gas fumes build to explosions or fires. Add a combustible gas detector for home safety if you heat, cook or dry clothes with natural gas. For safety, place a gas monitor near gas appliances like furnaces, water heaters and clothes dryers. Plug in this gas detector with alarm into an unswitched AC outlet or extend the cord high on the wall for natural gas. This CCI Gas Alarm cannot be hardwired into 120VAC.
Note: Carbon monoxide alarms have sensors specific to carbon monoxide. They cannot detect raw propane or natural gas. You need a detector with a combustible gas specific sensor. Avoid gas explosions or fires ignited by gas leaks. Don't rely on your sense of smell: a strong mercaptan odor or absence of odor don't mean danger or safety.
