The Kidde 5CO twin pack is a convenient purchase to provide protection for you and your family against carbon monoxide. CO is invisible, odourless, tasteless, and undetectable by human senses, making an audible detector the only way to be warned of this deadly gas. The 5CO includes a 10-year sensor life and is supplied with 2 x Duracell AA alkaline batteries. This alarm continuously detects the CO levels within a room and can either be wall mounted or free standing, featuring a 7 year manufacturer’s warranty.
Please note: although the packaging may state "excludes batteries", this is regarding the warranty period; the 5CO is supplied with the recommended batteries.

In short: yes, but there isn't just one, single rule to follow.
Legislative requirements for carbon monoxide alarms vary by which country of the UK your house is in and whether it is rented or owner-occupied. Most legislation requires at least one carbon monoxide alarm is fitted near new or replacement fuel-burning appliances (e.g. boiler, oven, fire place), specifically either 'tamper-proof' / 'sealed for life' alarms such as those using lithium batteries, or alternatively mains-powered models which are directly wired into mains supply as opposed to plug-in types. Some countries have exceptions for fuel-burning appliances used solely for cooking. Rented properties mostly require a CO alarm immediately even if no appliances are being installed or replaced.
Please see our page on carbon monoxide alarm legislation for more specific guidance, links to relevant legislation & government guidance, and links to carbon monoxide alarms suitable for each. Alternatively, please view our full range of carbon monoxide alarms if you already know what type you need.
