Carbon Monoxide Detector Location?

Well our vacation was fun since we couldn't sleep with the alarm beeping once every 60 seconds. We just slept outside.

Where can i find the battery for the carbon monoxide detector so i can replace it? I've looked everywhere and it's really frustrating.

Model: 2016 Chateu 22E

CO detector, LP detector or smoke detector? All three should be easy to find and temporarily disconnect. Hiding in plan site.

Your carbon monoxide detector is just below the bed near the floor. Your smoke detector is on the ceiling just above the entry door. The carbon monoxide usually has to be replaced as a whole unit with a sealed battery(no replaceable battery). The smoke detector should use a 9 volt battery and will open up to replace it.

Exclamation

I had a 2016 Coachmen MH previously. The CO detector would beep like that when the house batteries needed charging.

Another possibility, of course, is that you may have CO or possibly a propane leak present.

I don't see anything in plain site. There is no smoke detector visible in the cabin. I have no idea what is looks like. I hear the beeping above the closet behind the ceiling panels. What do i have to do, rip the panels off?

It's been beeping continuously the past three weeks on my driveway, i don't smell any odor. It can't be a leak.

I forgot to mention that usually the CO2/Propane Detector is near the floor and may be next to your breaker/fuse box near the bedroom.

The carbon monoxide tester should be up high somewhere the one for the LP leak detector is down low both of them have a lifespan if I remember right the Carbon monoxide is only good for five years and the LP detectors good for seven but again that’s when they installed so you need to find the date on them you can check it out
You can call the Thor help line and they should be able to tell you where they’re at
