Replaced 29 year old smoke alarms

I replaced 4 hard wired smoke detector that were 28 years old. The connector of the new ones were exactly the same which made replacing them a breeze

Very Pleased & Like Voice and Location Feature

I like the voice and location feature of this alarm. You can set one of several locations so when the battery is low or the device needs attention, you know which device needs attention vs. hunting for the beeping device. I will continue to buy these to replace older units in our home.

First Alert offered exactly the right bundle of smoke and co2 detectors we needed and they were shipped quickly. All working smoothly so far.

Frankly this unit is on back order and is in the shiping process. I am expecting it soon.

I prefer to order directly from the product vendor rather than ever using Amazon, and I was impressed with the ease of ordering from your website, and the quick shipment to my house. Plus, the product is so easy to install that I opened the box and within 15 minutes I had replaced the two defective alerts with the new alarms. All of my future orders will be direct with First Alert.

2 Hardwire Alarms with Voice

These 2 were replacements. An electrician installed the first ones 8 years ago. They were so easy to install ourselves! In addition, our order was shipped in just a few days. Highly recommend.

Voice Location is handy

I liked the programmable voice location feature when installing this in my sister's home. First Alert is currently the only brand with this feature. As alarms need changing elsewhere in my own home I will continue using this feature.

First Alert Great products

I have just recently replaced all my smoke detectors throughout our 10 room B&B. I bought all First Alert units and particularly like the 2 AA battery design rather than the 9 volt. I the combination smoke and carbon monoxide are excellent units and I used the link feature so if one goes off the other alerts. The batteries are much cheaper.

Easy Install, Voice hard to understand

Installation was easy. I like that it has two tones to distinguish smoke from CO2. However, the voice commands are a little hard to understand.

Highly recommended, families need to know this product who are without a smoke alarm system.

This product installation is quick and easy. This product is quick to respond in sequence with others in the system. The product is very loud and will notify you immediately.

Why Is My Smoke Alarm Beeping?

Smoke alarms can beep for to the following reasons:

  • Low Battery: This is the most common cause. Most smoke detectors use a chirping sound (usually a single beep every 30-60 seconds) to warn you that the batteries are running low and need to be replaced. Don't wait until the alarm is silent - replace the batteries right away to ensure your smoke alarm continues to function properly.
  • End of Life: Smoke alarms don't last forever. If your smoke detector is beeping constantly or in a different pattern than the low battery chirp, it may be nearing the end of its intended lifespan and should be replaced altogether.

Hardwired Talking Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm

The First Alert BRK SC7010BV Hardwired Talking Photoelectric Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm detects both carbon monoxide and smoke all in a single device. The combo smoke alarm features a photoelectric smoke sensor and electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor for complete peace of mind. The voice warning alerts you to the type of danger as well as the location. This CO smoke alarm is designed to be hardwired into your home or office. In the event of a power outage, the battery backup allows the unit to continue functioning.

Photoelectric Sensor Warns of Smoldering Fires

This First Alert Combination Alarm comes equipped with a photoelectric sensor to provide the earliest possible warning of fire. The sensor is optimized to detect larger smoke particles produced by smoldering fires, such as those caused by unextinguished cigarettes. It also distinguishes between real threats and smoke/vapor produced during showering, cooking, and other everyday activities, helping minimize the number of false alarms. A patented smoke entry system helps ensures reliable detection by providing a direct air pathway to the sensor.

Electrochemical Sensor Monitors CO Levels

The alarm also features an advanced electrochemical sensor that detects carbon monoxide leaks from a variety of sources, such as faulty fuel-burning appliances, blocked chimneys, and cars left running in the garage. Carbon monoxide can't be seen, smelled, or tasted in the air, and it is the leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in America. By placing carbon monoxide detectors on every floor of the home and in each sleeping room, you can help protect your family from the danger of carbon monoxide.

Talking Voice Alarm Tells You Where the Danger Is

The First Alert Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm not only alerts you when smoke or carbon monoxide has been detected, but it also tells you where the danger is. Indicator lights on the face of the unit also display the presence of smoke or carbon monoxide. The 85-decibel siren provides a clear, loud warning upon detection.

Interconnectivity for Larger Areas

The hardwired CO smoke alarm can be connected to other compatible BRK and First Alert hardwired alarms for larger buildings such as dormitories, office buildings, and apartments. Connect up to 18 compatible devices: up to 12 smoke alarms and six compatible devices like horns and repeaters. First Alert helps you create a comprehensive warning system for you and your property.

Battery Backup for Continuous Coverage

In the event of a power outage, the CO smoke alarm is still able to function thanks to its two AA backup batteries. An indicator sound is emitted when the batteries need to be replaced, and an optional drawer and mounting bracket lock help prevent tampering.
