Co2 is a heavy gass. Usually about plug height or close to a furnace/heater. Or gas source. They make the combos but if they are on the ceiling you will be knocked out of it’s leaking from a heat source before the alarm gets it

CO2 is heavier and tends to sink, but CO is slightly lighter than air.

The truth is that it doesn't really matter where you put the detector though because the CO won't go high or low, but just kind of spread out.

All of mine are high, including above the door that I run my generator outside of.
