how far away should this dectector be from my gas stove/oven

It can be near gas appliances as long as they dont leak gas...... ours is sensative. It will even go off if we use some body spray cologne near it. .... body spray has flamable gasses as propellant.

at least three feet away from appliance and no more than maxium of twenty feet, per mfg instructions

I'm not a "science" guy - just a homeowner who's had CO detectors for years. Mine are up high just where a smoke detector would be. Many friends and "experts" have seen them up there in my house. Nobody ever said it was not the correct location.

I put mine on the side of the furnace where I can see the light and down low , so if there is a leak , it will detect gasses. I think the gas is usually heavy and sinks to the ground, nothing else needed. I put it visible to check the battery and easy access

I think they consider 4 feet away to be ideal. You should also note the detector will only work on panel doors (you mount it on the top panel) and not solid one piece doors the swing upwards or carriage style.

Rebecca, I don't really know how long you would be holding onto the pan but if you are only going from inside to outside, not really 100 yards away I think you would be fine. I have never used it for that purpose, just for reaching inside the stove box and placing logs over a bed of glowing ashes and I have been good. Even something on fire but I'm quick about it.

Manual says not to place near or on gas or electric burner, in heated oven (microwave, convection, etc.) or any other heated surface. Hope that helps.

Thanks everyone for you comments. I have a carbon monoxide detector right out from my stove. We have also installed a fan over top of the unit. I guess it can't burn the fumes fast enough like gordyh was talking. If it gets worse will have a teck check it out. Again I would like to thank you all. Didn't think I would get a reply.

Generally, 3 to 4 feet away from the side. I mounted one about 10' above the entry steps to our front door and it turns on as soon as you get anywhere near the steps! It's a good product. Bright, too!

Not sure; I'll have to take a look at it next week; the stove is currently in a location about 4 hours from here!

The distance from the burner holes to the top of the grid is about 1 inch. On high, the flames will most certainly be in full contact with the pot and spread around the sides of a smaller one. If you find that the Low setting is still too hot, set the burner on High and continue turning the knob slowly towards the off setting and you can get it turned down to a simmer. Just keep an eye on it as it is easily blown out at this lower setting. This burner provides an extremely hot flame and if set properly, will boil water very quickly. I prefer it to the flat top ceramic range in the kitchen and use this burner almost every day for various purposes. REW. The distance from the burner holes to the top of the grid is about 1 inch.

Instructions say at least 3 feet from combustibles,however the 250 unit does not get that hot; seems excessive.

The cord is twice as long as the width of the outside of the oven. I don't have a tape measure hand, I am guessing around 30-34 inches. The power code is on the back on the same side as the buttons.

About 3 feet/1 meter. More than enough to reach outside my grill or oven. I have used on both!

I'm not real big on reading instructions, but ... we have it about six inches from the tiled wall. The only part of the oven perimeter that gets warm is the top. They say it's for warming dishes. :>)

I have the sensor nailed to a tree about three feet off the ground. It is very sensitive. I think installed at an angle above the garage would work. The receiver in the house works very well and beeps three times everytime something passes the sensor, could be a car, animal, or garbage man. Do not put the receiver near metal like a microwave it seems to block the radio waves. Also when the transmitter is rained on sometimes you get false readings. I put a plastic shroud over the top made from a yogurt container. Overall I am very pleased with the product and for the price it is a very good value. I highly recommend this product.

Place it at one end with sensor facing toward middle it has about a 6 foot range
