Features

The AC wire-in Kidde KN-COP-IC carbon monoxide alarm offers multiple contractor-friendly features to ensure easy installation and minimal troubleshooting. It can be installed on any standard single gang electrical box (up to a 4-inch octagon junction box), and it features a snap-on electrical harness for quick installation and an adjustable mounting bracket for perfect alignment. The unit also includes a smart interconnect system with up to 24 Kidde devices, including smoke alarms. When interconnected, it can sound its carbon monoxide alarm pattern as well as sound a different alarm pattern when a Kidde smoke alarm is in alarm mode.

It features three color LEDs for at-a-glance status updates. A green LED lights constantly when AC power is present, and it flashes every 7 seconds when in battery mode. An amber LED illuminates during a CO incident, while a red LED flashes in unison with the audible alert for both a smoke or CO incident. A digital display allows constant monitoring of carbon monoxide levels and updates every 15 seconds to let you know if levels change. The peak level memory feature displays the highest CO level measured since the last reset. A battery-backup system (powered by included 9-volt battery) provides continuous monitoring of carbon monoxide levels even during a power failure. It has a seven-year operating life and is backed by a five-year limited warranty.

I purchased this unit as a replacement for one that went bad in my home. Its an exact duplicate to what I had previously and works the same. I got 7 years out of the previous one and hopefully I'll get the same or better on this new one. It arrived in new condition and they even supplied the battery backup.....as well as some nice little freebies too.

This is fine except that it doesn't fully communicate with the smoke alarms. If this detects CO the smoke alarms don't sound. If the smoke alarms go off this will go off and say fire. It is still good enough to keep, but this is disappointing.

I have further researched this. Kidde documents the interconnect issues in document 810-2172.

Much better product than the firex's it replaced. Very easy to install. Digital readout is very easy to read. The detector alarm is louder than the firex. Battery backup is a must and this product has it. Very happy with this product.
