Do you need a new smoke alarm? Studies show that the average smoke alarm is only reliable for 8-10 years. (of course, the batteries need to be changed yearly!)
Are you unhappy with the number of smoke detectors your house has? I’m definitely not! In my state, the first floor of the home just needs one near the kitchen, so when they built my home (3 years ago) that’s all they put in. (I naively assumed that “code” would protect us & did not realize this until after I moved in!) Now I see that the boiler room is nowhere near the kitchen & that scares me…
This unit won’t sync with other alarms, but its a good warning before the smoke hits those. The useful thing about battery-operated units that aren’t synced is if you want one in your kitchen to warn of burning food, but don’t want all your alarms ringing every time you fry some chicken breasts for dinner. (Like when you cook after the little ones are sleeping…)
Kidde Smoke Detector Qualities:
The Kidde battery operated smoke alarm provides you and your family an early warning signal against the dangers of fire and smoke. This easy to install smoke alarm includes a test button to verify the unit’s electronic circuitry, horn and battery function are work properly. The Kidde Smoke Alarm also includes a tamper resist feature to help deter theft or tampering. This smoke alarm is powered by a 9V battery and is suitable for all living areas.
This smoke alarm uses ionization sensing technology. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles (associated with flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible particles (associated with smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms. Kidde strongly recommends that both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help insure maximum detection of the various types of fire that can occur within the home.
