Bypassing CO (Carbon Monoxide) SensorUpdated 3 months ago

At DuroMax, safety is our top priority. We cannot and will not provide instructions on how to bypass, disable, or modify the CO (Carbon Monoxide) sensor on any DuroMax generator or any other equipment.

The CO sensor is a critical safety feature designed to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, which is a serious and potentially fatal hazard. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that can accumulate quickly in enclosed or improperly ventilated areas, leading to severe health risks, unconsciousness, or death.

Additionally, tampering with or bypassing the CO sensor:

  • Voids the manufacturer’s warranty and may cause the generator to malfunction.
  • Violates safety regulations set by organizations such as the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and OSHA.
  • Could lead to serious legal and liability issues if injury or damage occurs.
