I would definitely abide by the rules. I'm not part of any advertising company so that I would go for free advertising, rather my intention was just to extend my help. In future I would definitely bear in mind. I love contributing my little bit. Having said that, you are rest assured of many practical posts from my side in the future. Joy being a part of this forum Cheers! Thanks

Without fail have your carbon alarm tested for effective functioning. Test a carbon monoxide detector to identify the level of carbon monoxide (CO). To check if the device has adequate electrical power from an outlet or batteries by pressing the 'Test' button on the detector. Install them correctly and test for proper function, test digital readout with a low level CO source, use a detector test kit and know when your CO Detector will sound an alarm. It should sound an alarm when concentrations of CO reach 70 ppm and remain steady for one to four hours. In the case of emergency call 911 and contact a local gas company. To be on the safer side, I have employed security professional for fire watch. In an adverse situation, get everyone in the house out and open all the windows near the detector. An air concentration of CO above 400ppm will be fatal within three hours.

Thanks for this pic, They are gonna be very rare sometime later.

Remember an alarm simply should be having a glowing LED, which ensures it is working fine though I can understand your problem. Still if are admant on getting rid off this light troubling your wife, have an electrical tape covering it, over change the location, or say Blu-tack coin over the light. The last option would be to snip one leg of LED with a small cutter, detector will still work even if the LED is broken. I once thought of smashing the LED light on my own. Sought technical help from home security monitoring systems Edmonton, sleepwell security, they suggested me to relocate it to a more convenient location rather than getting rid of it.

Great thread! Thank you.. an archive of rare pics.

Which are you opting for Mechanical sanding, heat guns or paint stripping chemicals. The best is chemical paint strippers. remember to use heavy duty palstic drop cloths and blue ,masking tape. Work slowly. Do "test patches".

if you are planning to paint use non-skid or add silica to opaque polyurethane deck paint. Use adeck cleaner and dewaxing agent to decontaminate the surfaces you are planning to paint. Sanding the surface would be good.Vacuum Clean before paintig
