Carbon Monoxide
As a FF you can’t comprehend the number of missing or unplugged smoke and CO detectors I have encountered.
It’s quite scary

I can about imagine. We switched to Omnishield smoke and CO monitors that are linked together. I have an app on my phone that will tell me if one goes off when I am not home. Plus, they have an extra long battery life which when time for replacement I just contact the company and they send me one to swap out. They were spendy but with my wife disabled and home most of the time I wanted something that would alert me in the event something did happen. In addition, they all will go off if there is an issue and all I need to do is press one and it will shut off all of them but where the issue is. That is designed to protect against situation where one goes off in another part of the house and no one hears it. Since we switched to these I do not have any of the false alarm that I had with the box store detectors (they do work as the installer tested them for us to demonstrate)
