piping runs in return air ducting, plenums, and air
handling equipment enclosures, especially those
adjacent to machinery compartment bulkheads.

Check that water traps and condensate drains are
present. These may be in the form of a double
loop in the drain line or prefabricated p-traps. Any
drain that discharges below the waterline when the
boat is underway is sealed, by virtue of its design,
against CO intrusion.
Boats are equipped with ventilation systems to elimi-
nate gasoline vapors. Blowers and fans may also be
provided for ventilation and to mitigate the migration of
CO into occupied compartments. Attention should be
paid to the following:

Sink, shower and condensate drains can be a source
of CO ingress. Ensure that water traps are present

. Ensuring that position of ducting intake is not ob-
structed or restricted, collapsed, kinked, or crushed drains that are below the waterline when boat is under-
way will be above the waterline when the boat is at rest.
5. Eliminating sags in ducting that can form a water
trap
The location of drains, relative to the waterline, can be
affected by the dynamics of boat motion (i.e., under-
way or at rest).

CO monitors should be professionally installed
and calibrated. Failure to do so may result in
the improper function of the CO detector.

2.
Seal all visible openings (e.g., cracks, crevices,
holes, including openings around wiring and piping
runs) in bulkheads and decks that separate ma-
chinery compartments from occupied compart-
ments. These openings can permit migration of
CO vapors.
Never disarm a CO detector. If a CO detector
alarms, immediately ventilate the area and
check passengers for symptoms of CO intoxi-
cation. See your Four Winns dealer for assis-
tance in diagnosing the cause for the alarm.
Check gaskets and sealing surfaces on hatches,
doors, and access panels.
Y. Maintenance - Air Conditioning Systems
NOTICE
For information on CO Detection Systems, see
American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC
Manual) Section A-24, “Carbon Monoxide De-
tectors”.
These systems can be a source of CO ingress and
migration of CO vapors.

Keep grilles and filters clean.
