Bargain alert! CO alarms...

I'm sure with a knowledge of electronics you could rig something up. These don't have that function as standard though.

To join Costco you just need proof of being self-employed. I took a statement from my business account and another letter and that was it. Costs about £25 a year.

Great, I shall have a gander and see what it's like

Can you wire these into a boiler though so if it senses ought it will shut boiler down

No no and no. It would have to approved by the regulatory authorities and would be deemed an illegal modification.
Phew that was serious for me!

No, had the idea but didn't go Any further, my thought was to have a gas shut off as this would work with O/F, F/L, R/S but CO false alarms waste hours of my life already...... Have to take your time before u say its ok!!

100% correct. This would be very silly to do . It would need to have cert before u use it . Some interlink co / heat detectors have a 240 or 12v signal, this could be used external to boiler with a normally closed 240v relay but I wouldn't!

I need to learn all these relays and transistors and capacitors and diodes and all this stuff. But from where

 

[Ermintrude]

Playing with them and an old electronics book or Nelson and Parker A level physics 5th or 6th Ed . Threw one out from recently was fro 88!

 

[Ermintrude]

Or google he's good too!

 

[mutley racers]

So more studying to be done then. 88, yikes

I'm sure someone will make one that has an interlock on it, probably linked to a solenoid.
If there is one it won't be cheap.
