Carbon monoxide tester?
Been all over Accrington today looking for one of those stick on testers but can't find one anywhere, looked in the Market Hall, Wilkinsons, B&M, Whewells shop (thanx Lancsdave) and the pound shops and none of them sell them.
The reason i'm asking is because my Parakeet died this morning and i just want to rule out any carbon monoxide in the living room, i highly doubt there is any because Twin Valley did their annual gas check last week and didn't report anything anyone any ideas where i can get one from?...just to be on the safe side |

I got one through the post from british gas ages ago but not sure where you would buy them from. |

PS Birds--General: Parakeet- sudden death, pet parakeet, shoe dyes
plenty of other causes to consider |
Re: Carbon monoxide tester?
Does the fire brigade not give them out, free of charge. Might be worth giving them a quick ring Accrington 235211 or Blackburn 52111.

I bought mine from Focus a couple of months ago.
I think from memory it was about £26 |

I got it before my gas central heating boiler was replaced. According to the men who installed the condenser boiler, if it starts to emit carbonmonoxide it automatically shuts down. |

Try a Caravan, Camping & Motor homes place if you've got one near you, they've probably got some.

Actually got a lecture from a B.T. Engineer about the stick on ones ... although better than nothing, don't wake you up if you have some CM emissions. Another point is, I don't look at mine too often. Flashy: Sorry about your little feathered friend. Know from past posts you were fond of him... xx |
