My sister has a stand alone humidifier located against a wall a few inches away from where a carbon monoxide detector is plugged into a wall outlet.
An electrician doing some work in her home told he the detector shouldn't be located so close to the humidifier but didn't tell her why.
Other than the possibility of accidentally splashing water onto the carbon monoxide detector while filling the humidifier, is there any valid reason why they can't be located near each other?
Thanks guys,
Jeff
