Have fun explaining unvented natural gas room heaters.

How many dryers have a CO detector that shuts off the dryer when it
gets too high??

I believe most if not all of them do today.

Dia duit

Actually they have an OXYGEN DEPLETION sensor that shuts off the
heater if the oxygen level falls too low to support proper combustion.
Which makes sense when you think about it... Why freeze to death when
you are dying of CO poisoning from that unvented dryer?

Keeps the corpse from smelling too bad...
