Officials from the Louisiana Office of State Fire Marshal are asking business owners to place carbon monoxide alarms next to generators in their stores.

SFM officials suggest that business owners place carbon monoxide alarms next to generators on sale or place them in a visible area of the store, such as the checkout counter.
