Experience the next level of fire safety with the Kidde Hardwired Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detector, 10-Year Battery Backup, Interconnectable LED Warning Light Indicators, model 30CUA10. This smoke & CO detector has enhanced sensing technology that reduces false alarms often caused by cooking and sends fast alerts that help give your family more time to get out safely. To detect carbon monoxide, an electrochemical sensor is used. This alarm offers a modern 5-inch design ideal for all living spaces such as living rooms, hallways, kitchens, & bedrooms. Comprehensively tested and designed to the latest UL standard for safety and reliability, the 5-inch smoke & CO alarm is powered by 120V AC wiring with a 10-year built-in lithium battery, so you never have to change a battery for the life of the detector (not a battery performance claim). In addition, it’s self-testing and easy to install with the included twist-and-click mounting bracket. This Kidde combination alarm is equipped with end-of-life notifications that will beep to remind you it’s time to replace it at the of its 10-year lifespan. Meets requirements of 9th Edition UL 217, UL 2034 4th Edition, FCC, and CSFM.
2-IN-1 DETECTION: Alerts you to both smoke & carbon monoxide (CO) using a single, cost-effective device.
HARDWIRED & 10-YEAR BATTERY BACKUP: Operates on 120V AC wiring (installed in the ceiling). No battery changes for 10 years & saves up to $40 over the life of the detector.
ENHANCED SENSING TECHNOLOGY: Reduces false smoke alarms often caused by cooking. Comprehensively tested to meet the latest UL standards, meets UL 217 9th Edition, UL 2034 4th Edition, & FCC standards.
INTERCONNECT CAPABILITY: When one alarm sounds, they all sound, so you can get out faster. (Different models offer different interconnection options and requirements. See User Guide for more info.)
SELF-TESTING ALARM: Internal components ensure alarm is always operating as expected. Not a substitute for a manual push test, perform a button test once per week to verify alarm operation.
3 LED NOTIFICATIONS: LED lights indicate alarm status, green = normal operation, amber = operating error, red = smoke or carbon monoxide detected & a loud 85-decibel alarm will sound.
TEST & HUSH BUTTON: Makes it easy to test the 5-inch combination detector and silence false alarms, should they occur.
10-YEAR WARRANTY: Begins when alarm is powered on. If that date is unknown, it should be assumed that alarms should be replaced. (10-yr limited warranty on alarm, not a battery performance claim.)

Title: Helpful Hint
Review: These are great alarms. I installed nine on four floors and discovered something you can hopefully avoid. One was false-alarming so I removed it. Then another one alarmed so I removed that one. Then another. Crazy. I finally removed them all and called customer service. Turns out I made a bad connection in one that was triggering false alarms in all the others. So make sure your harness connections are tight so you donât get voltage leaking from the black to the red wire, as that communicates an alarm to the whole system. Major pain in the *ss, for sure but glad I found it and hope you can avoid the same. Theyâd could include that in the troubleshooting guide.

Title: Easy to install
Review: Easy to install. No need to buy the adapter harness if you have an older model, attach your existing wire nuts, it's really that easy. Just turn off the power first

Title: REPLACEMENT FOR ONE THAT QUIT WORKING
Review: I purchased this to replace my first alert smoke/carbon monoxide detector that stopped working after 7 years. I am 70 years old and if I can undo the wires and install this new one it is easy to do.Was also happy that the new mounting plate was easily attached.

The mounting plate fits the existing wall box well. Many customers are satisfied with its functionality. However, some dislike the alarm frequency and have differing views on the overall quality.
