while shopping this morning at home depot I spotted this funny sign. when I told one of the sales person about it, she did not know what Im talking about , then she offered to get an electrician for me. Can you see it?

A new state law will take effect for residential real estate transfers taking place after Jan. 1, 2014, requiring one- and two-family homes built before Oct. 1, 2005 to have both smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Homes built after Oct. 1, 2005 are already required to have hardwired smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Supposed to be CO (monoxide) instead of CO2 (dioxide)? Only thing I can think of, but I ain't too smart! Cheers!

Bullllll. Newer construction must have both but two combo detectors are NOT required.

D'oh! I totally missed the "2"

That is funny.

 

[Wildo]

Ha missed the 2

If the CO2 goes off I think you might be dead or really sick before the smoke goes off

Good thing it's not a CH4 detctor. I'd never get a lick of sleep.

Glad I didn't have a C2H6O detector in the house last weekend - would have woke everyone - phew, rough night. Cheers!
