Kidde 5DCO 10 Year Life Digital Display Carbon Monoxide Alarm

Product Information

The Kidde’s sensor takes CO readings every 15 seconds and is a very sensitive thing indeed: it’s set to sound its 85dB alarm when carbon monoxide levels remain at 41ppm for 60 minutes. The Nest Protect passed our sealed incense test with flying colours: the smoke alarm went off first, followed by the CO alarm five minutes later; according to the app, the CO level was 414ppm and increasing. The one downside with this model is that it runs off a pair of AA batteries, which need to be switched out roughly every three years, making three changes during its lifespan.

Very easy to install and comes with some of the clearest, most comprehensive instructions as to the various alarms and readouts the detector offers.

Please note: the packaging may state "excludes batteries" but this is regarding the warranty period; the 5CO is supplied with suitable batteries. The health effects of CO depend on the concentration and length of exposure (carbon monoxide concentration is measured in parts per million). For more information, please check the manufacturer's instructions – you can download the PDF manual from the relevant product page on our site.com/image/upload/w_350,q_auto,f_auto/v1680616708/kidde/home-safety/product/KN-COP-DP-10YL-AQ-WF/KN-COP-DP-10YL-AQ-WF.

The 7DCO comes with a ten-year lifespan and is BS EN 50291-2 certified for camping, caravanning and travel, or even use on a boat. It allows you to be reassured and to be able to react quickly in the event of a leak by opening the windows or by evacuating the premises.If you’re looking for a simple, all-in-one safeguard for a room with a gas fire, stove, fireplace or boiler, this is as effective and easy as they get. Most people will not experience any symptoms from prolonged exposure to CO levels of under, say, 40ppm. If the smoke alarm is powered by battery, it runs on either a disposable 9-volt battery or a non-replaceable 10-year sealed lithium battery. CO alarms should be kitemarked to EN50291-1:2018 for use in domestic premises, and BS EN 50291-2:2010 for use in the home or a boat or caravan.
