This alarm is designed to sense the presence of carbon monoxide/propane gas, however
there are other combustible fumes or vapors that may be detected by the sensor including

These chemicals can be found in commonly used items such as deodorants, colognes,
perfumes, adhesives, lacquer, kerosene, glues, wine, liquor, most cleaning agents and the
propellants of aerosol cans.
High temperatures can activate glue and adhesive vapors. If you close up the recreation
