Kidde Lifesaver Carbon Monoxide Alarm 5CO Twin Pack

Product Information

Obviously I hope never to hear it going off for real but if checked regularly should keep the family safe. It is this commitment to first class equipment that has made us one of the leading providers of fire alarms and other safety equipment. A good point is the green light that flashes on every 30s (to let you know it is working) is not intrusive which is why we chose it for the lounge. Choose from models with a digital readout that displays the levels of carbon monoxide in your home at all times whilst keeping a record of your highest levels, this will help you keep track of the harmful gas and be alerted whenever dangerous levels are detected.

The 5CO features two LED's - The red LED illuminates when the alarm has detected CO in the atmosphere and the green LED confirms that DC power is present.It is usually difficult to know if a carbonmonoxide alarm works unless one is exposed to the dangerous gas which could then be too late. If, like me, you live in a rented house and holes in walls = bad, then just pop it on a cupboard or something not too far from your potential death source ie boiler. Bear in mind that carbon monoxide is known as "the silent killer" and fitting at least one or more of these detectors can help save your life. Before doing so I parked my lawnmower out of sight in the house so that it would not be stolen outside. Model GTA-269 Hush Feature Photoelectric Sensor for slow smoldering flames Power up by AC Quick Connector (3pin plug in) 9V Battery Included Interconnectable with wires Available in Kellys Homevalue Hardware.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.I have had no incident of smoke or CO gas so I can't comment on how effective a response this device has give. The 5CO features two LED lights; the red LED illuminates when the alarm has detected CO in the atmosphere and the green LED confirms that DC power is present and the alarm is operational.

Testing it by pressing the test button it emits the right shrieking noises with lights and spoken words.I guess I have to take it on good faith that it's working well and will protect me if there's a problem. There is a test button to check that the alarm is functioning and that the batteries are OK which I have tried a couple of times.
