If your CO2 detector is going off all the time. It needs to be replaced, they sample air non stop. Once they collect so much polution they can no loinger make the distinction. Spraying fabreeze and the like, shortens the life of a CO2 detector substantialy. So in all likelyhood, you just needed to replace it, I would not just delete it. You can get a new one on ebay or other auction sites for a fair price. What is your familys lives worth?

I read that. I think that is total BS! Portables put out just as much CO as anything. Sometimes they are the worst if they are the old B&S type. Some people are courteous about where they put them and some are not.

I agree placement is important but I think it would be difficult to put an exhaust extension on some of them as well as looking pretty stupid with a 10 foot pipe sticking up in the air and not attached to anything

Amen Brother. I will pass a good pit space close to folks I know if I see one of those B&S things chugging along. I have one of the quiet portables with extra length shore line so I can strategically place it for fumes to go away from others. If others aren't as considerate simply pack up your stuff and move if possible, CO poisoning is nasty stuff.
