Kidde Smoke & CO Detector Combo, 10-Year Battery, 4 Count

The Kidde P3010K Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detector Combo is a versatile safety device incorporating both smoke and carbon monoxide detection into a single unit. Utilizing advanced photoelectric sensing technology, this unit effectively identifies visible fire particles, while a sensitive electrochemical sensor detects the presence of carbon monoxide. In the event of smoke, fire, or carbon monoxide detection, the Kidde alarm emits an 85-decibel alert accompanied by a flashing LED light, ensuring that occupants are promptly notified of any hazards.

This smoke and carbon monoxide alarm operates on a robust 10-year lithium battery, removing the hassle of frequent battery replacements and ensuring functionality even during power outages. The Smart-Hush feature allows users to silence the alarm for approximately 8 minutes in situations of nuisance alerts, such as those triggered by common activities like cooking or showering. This function is particularly useful for reducing false alarms and maintaining peace in the home.

When the device is installed, a green LED light will flash every 60 seconds, indicating that the alarm is powered and functioning correctly. For optimal safety, it is recommended to place a combined smoke and carbon monoxide detector on every level of your home and near sleeping areas, providing comprehensive protection for your family.

The Kidde alarm is UL certified, meeting rigorous standards such as UL 2034, UL 217, NFPA 72 (Chapter 11, 2002 edition), and complies with mandates from the State of California Fire Marshal, NFPA 101 (for one and two-family dwellings), as well as regulations from the Federal Housing Authority (FHA) and Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Key features of this 2-in-1 detection appliance include: - Dual detection capabilities for smoke, fire, and poisonous carbon monoxide gas in one device. - A photoelectric sensor that identifies slow, smoldering fires by detecting their smoke particles. - An electrochemical sensor proficient in detecting harmful carbon monoxide levels. - Activation of an 85-decibel alarm coupled with a red LED light indicating smoke or fire detection, providing immediate visual and auditory alerts. - The lithium battery design ensures reliable operation without the need for periodic battery changes, maintaining protection even if the power goes out. - The Test-Hush button enables users to easily check the functionality of the alarm and suppress false alarms triggered by regular home activities, adding convenience to safety. - Once mounted, the alarm automatically activates without the need for manual switches or pull tabs, streamlining the setup process. - At the end of the unit’s operational life, it will chirp to notify users that a replacement is necessary, ensuring continued safety.

The alarm is UL listed and comes with a 10-year limited manufacturer’s warranty, applicable only to the alarm itself, not the battery's performance. This warranty begins upon powering on the device. If the activation date is unknown, it is advisable to consider replacement as needed for ongoing safety.
