A new product could help prevent accidental deaths when vehicles are left running in attached garages.
The Garage Master automatically opens the garage door after sensing a carbon monoxide detector’s alarm.
When the CO level exceeds the safety limit, the detector sounds an alarm, which activates a Skylink audio sensor.
The audio sensor then sends a signal to the Garage Master (www.skylink.com), which opens the garage door immediately to ensure proper ventilation.
The Garage Master also allows homeowners to set their garage door to close after a predetermined period of time.
