< font lang="0" size="2" face="Arial">The household detectors do not al arm in time to save your health, only your life.=A0 They alarm at one of th ree levels:100 ppm for <90 minutes
200 ppm for <35 minutes
300 ppm for <15 minutes
So theoretically you could be at 90+ ppm for ever and it still wouldn't alarm.
The OSHA PEL-TWA is 50 ppm
The ACGIH T LV-TWA is 25 ppmEPA says 9.5 - 12.4 ppm ave for 8 hours is unhealthy for sensitive grou ps
EPA says 12.5 - 15.4 ppm ave for 8 hours is just plain unhealthy.So I'd want a detector that would let me know at an ave of 10 ppm a t 8 hours or provides digital read out of peak levels on demand down to 10 ppm.

the line for requiring a detector?=A0 Do you allow residential detectors fo r certain
