Smoke detectors are mounted at the highest "trap" points for rising smoke.

CO detectors can be mounted near CO producing appliances. CO density is very close to air, but since it is usually warmer than the air when produced, a high trap point should be good for CO detectors too.

LP is heavier than air. So, LP detectors shouild be mounted low and near LP appliances.

At least this is what the 'net says.
