Everytime my mother cooks using the stove, the carbon monoxide detector goes off. It seems like every sunday when she cooks for a long period of time faithfully the detector goes off like an hour after the stove has been shut off. I take it down remove the battery and open the windows. about 20 minutes later i put it back up….no alarm goes off. the battery is new so that shouldnt be an issue. The only thing i am fearing is a possible gas leak. What should i do?

They just passed a law in Illinois saying that you have to have a Carbon Monoxide Detector in your home. Is there a difference between the plug-ins or the battery operated alarm? Also, does a home only need one or should there be an alarm near all appliances?
