Question on gas alarm
Can sewer gas set off the gas alarm ? Guy
Forum Discussion
Interesting question. From an article on gas alarms:
“If you buy a residential gas detector system, make sure you get the right one, O'Shea said. Natural gas customers should purchase a detector that can sense methane gas, while propane customers should purchase a propane detector.”
So it would appear that a propane detector such as we have in our RVs would not detect methane, which is a component of sewer gas.
