FarmerTy Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hey gang, I was chatting with a beer brewing friend of mine and somehow we got on the discussion of CO2 cylinders and safety. Do any of you that have CaRX's run CO2 monitors in the house? I think that would be a worthwhile investment the more and more I think about it. Especially considering I have a 20-lb cylinder under the tank. Here's what I found so far in a quick google search: http://www.roguehydro.com/blueprint-co2-monitor-bcm/?ref=lexity&_vs=google&_vm=productsearch&gclid=Cj0KEQjw7_mrBRDH4Y2UjLHEmfcBEiQA8OTHfzVkyPk-6zrukcbl_rc4UtcCEyP4K-JejvDOoGsik2YaAnNQ8P8HAQ http://www.co2meter.com/products/tim10-desktop-co2-temp-humidity-monitor?gclid=Cj0KEQjw7_mrBRDH4Y2UjLHEmfcBEiQA8OTHf-LEIsMNtoSZ4Uw92Qzq5Y9AR9cBrjgWaRz7xTopW0UaAsld8P8HAQ Anyways, just seeing if anybody has any input or uses one. The one with the humidity readings would be a nice bonus! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I use compressed gas cylinders quite often in my line of work, and a 20 pound cylinder would not have the capacity to displace enough oxygen in our houses, even if it completely evacuated itself in a medium sized room. Most of our tanks are in living areas where there is plenty of air volume, but it would take a considerably large cylinder to evacuate instantaneously to cause asphyxiation.

FarmerTy Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Beautiful, I think you assuaged my fears sir. Victoly just told me the same so two environmental consultants signing off is good enough for me. [emoji4] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Just for fun: 347 ppm CO2 outdoors 637 ppm CO2 indoors 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan H Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I may have to get one of those monitors just because I like data... And toys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
