Carbon monoxide alarms shall be installed in the following locations:

  1. On the ceiling of each room containing a permanently installed fuel-burning appliance; and

  2. Centrally located on every habitable level and in every heating/ventilation/air conditioning zone of the building

  3. Fire drills will be conducted how often

  4. Orientation requirements to be taught: (6)

The correct answer is: Centrally located on every habitable level and in every heating/ventilation/air conditioning zone of the building

The correct answer is B because carbon monoxide alarms should be installed centrally on every habitable level and in every heating/ventilation/air conditioning zone of the building to ensure that occupants are alerted in case of this dangerous gas's presence. Option A mentions installing alarms only in rooms with fuel-burning appliances, which may not be sufficient to cover all areas where carbon monoxide may accumulate. Option C is unrelated to the installation of carbon monoxide alarms, as it refers to fire drill frequency. Option D refers to orientation requirements rather than the proper placement of carbon monoxide alarms within the facility.
