Did you know that you can set off your CO/Propane detector by using Lysol? Me either!
Well, now I know. We had bought the kids new blankets and I sprayed them so they could use them that night (it’s been chilly). Suddenly the alarm started blaring. I had no idea that spraying the Lysol would set it off.
I did some reading online and supposedly Febreze, passing gas right next to it, the RV batteries getting warm and emitting odor/gas, bug sprays, sunscreen/spray, hair spray, even some cooking sprays can all set it off.
We even spilled a little bit of an alcoholic drink near it, and it went off as well! It is starting to remind me of the smoke detector in the kitchen of the house. Anytime the oven got over 375 degrees F, it went off.
It certainly has been an experience learning the idiosyncrasies of our RV. Although, to be fair, it hasn’t been too bad so far. Just a little ear splitting at times. 🙂
Oh the things you share are life lessons…there is so much to learn and I enjoy your tenacity and willingness to get to the “heart” of a problem… Problem solving is such a masterful skill and desire. In each encounter along the way I can see how you are finding lots of opportunities to employ problem solving tactics…. Thanks for sharing and continued safe travels
