They say to refer to the BS for positioning requirements.
Ollski, I know where to position it for an appliance test (On all appliances) it's just to obtain the ambient room levels that are a mystery to me..

All I need to know is should I put my probe next to the canaries cage or on the coffee table while I enjoy a lovely cup of Earl Grey.

Why should it make any difference? Would CO levels vary with height above the floor?

 

[SDN]

Hooray...
Thanks bster, a quick answer and directly to the point.
Many Thanks to you and ollski.
Chris... yes it does matter.. I suffer with a bad back. If I have to bend down then the price goes up 20 Groats.

Aren't all probes open ended? Can't see much point in one that isn't.
