[VAL] placement of CO detector



Thanks for the important and useful discussion of CO detectors. I'm 
wondering where the most effective placement of a detector in an 
Airstream will be. CO has a specific gravity of 0.96716. EPA recommends 
placement outside bedrooms. Does the specific gravity indeed mean that 
CO is lighter than air, and so the detector should be placed high (on 
the ceiling, fore the bedroom) or would a location nearer the furnace 
be the best bet?

Best,
