VERY IMPORTANT!! -- Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas. If you end up detecting it without any tools (symptoms include headache, nausea, fatigue, among others), you are on your way to death, so it's imperative to get into fresh air pronto.

That's why it's imperative that your CO detector is good working order, since that's the only thing that's going to prevent you from taking the big nap. They also need to be swapped out either every 5 or every 10 years (my detector had an expiration date marked on the back). Frankly, I think it's even more important than an LP detector.
