The First Alert SC7010B Hardwired Combination Photoelectric Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm with Battery Backup delivers both smoke and carbon monoxide detection in a single unit. Equipped with a photoelectric sensor and Optipath 360 technology, the alarm detects smoke produced by smoldering fires while keeping false alarms to a minimum. The unit also features an advanced electrochemical sensor that detects carbon monoxide leaks from multiple sources such as faulty fuel-burning appliances and blocked chimneys. If a threat is detected, the alarm emits a spread spectrum horn tone that is designed to be heard by people with age-related hearing loss. Made to be hardwired directly into the electrical system of your home or facility, this 120-volt hardwired smoke detector features a backup battery that helps keep the alarm functioning even in the event of a power outage. The alarm's perfect mount system allows for easy installation and alignment, while its low battery latch gives a visual indication if the battery is running low. And thanks to the convenient test/silence button, it is easy to check alarm function and mute false alarms.
