Feature

Provides Protection from Two Hazards - Fire and CO in one unit with 10-year sealed lithium battery backup.
Sealed-In Lithium Battery Backup - No battery replacement required over the 10 year life of the alarm. Eliminates worry about removal or unauthorized deactivation of alarm.
Voice Warning System - Verbally announces "FIRE!" or "WARNING! CARBON MONOXIDE" to help distinguish between threats. Audio Alarm: 85 dB at 10 feet
Ionization Sensing Technology - Ideal for detecting fast flaming and other types of fires. Temperature Range : 40 degree F (4.4 degree C) to 100 degree F (37.8 degree C)
Hush Feature - Temporarily silences nuisance alarms for approximately 9 minutes and will not allow hush mode unless the unit is in alarm mode.

Description

The Kidde i12010SCO is a hardwired combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarm that contains a 10-year, sealed battery backup. This alarm uses breakthrough technology to offer a fast response to real fires, including smoldering and fast-flaming, as well as protect you from carbon monoxide and dramatically reduce the chance of nuisance alarms. The Intelligent sensor technology combines the detection capabilities of an ionization smoke sensor which is more likely to detect smaller, less visible fire particles, like those produced by flaming fires with that of an electrochemical sensor, which is used to detect CO. Since carbon monoxide is present in all fires, having both detection chambers work together in one alarm is a breakthrough in the fire safety industry. When either sensor notices a potential hazard, it will communicate with the other. Depending on what is detected, the alarm will adjust its smoke sensitivity in order to better discriminate between a real hazard and a false one. This constant communication enhances the alarms overall performance in all fires, and significantly reduces the potential for a nuisance alarm.
