I always do a flue integrity check on the air inlet sample point. Never had an issue.
Doing one today and I realised I don’t know what values the are to be classed as a fail.

Can’t seem to find it in my books either.
Is there a TB I can read to refresh my brain?
 
Its air intake so the the same as fresh air, anything above normal co levels would indicate a leak from the flue seals into the air intake. This would also result in higher than normal flue readings

Edit quick google search brings up 0-9ppm for normal indoor co levels
