New Sensing Plus® Multi-Criteria Detection provides the benefits of both photoelectric and ionization alarms in one device to protect against fast flaming and slow smoldering fires.

This USI Electric Smoke Detector implements a 10 year lithium-free battery that will never have to be replaced throughout the life of the alarm, giving you a decade's worth in peace of mind even in the event of a power outage. 10 Year Permanent Power also saves money from battery replacements (up to $38.00 over the 10-year life of the alarm), eliminates annoying low battery chirps and helps the environment by reducing environmental waste from disposed batteries. This hardwired smoke and fire alarm features microprocessor intelligence that offers superior false alarm resistance. A single silence/test button to quiet a non-hazardous alarm and an end-of-service life warning that sounds when it's time to replace the battery (approximately 10-years from activation) have also been included.
Perfect for replacing existing USI Alarms, Universal Security Sensing Plus® Hardwired Smoke and Fire Detectors feature a large mounting base to cover imperfections in drywall and the option to replace retrofitting applications. The quick activation battery pull tab makes it easy to install while the deactivation key switches the alarm off and makes the batteries safe for disposal. Once the 10 year smoke and fire alarm is deactivated, the tamper resistant feature turns on to prevent deactivated alarms from being reinstalled.

USI Sensing Plus Hardwired Smoke Alarm with 10 Year Battery Backup Reviews
These Units are quite easy to install in place of older non-Universal units.
Easily installed right where old box was. Wiring is compatible with existing home wiring. 10 year battery life is amazing! Very good price.
Was able to switch out my old smoke detector with the new 10 year battery version. Extremely easy to do. Replaced the old bracket with the new one and mounted the new alarm in a couple minutes. Clear instructions. I have about seven more that I will be replacing soon.
I dreaded replacing my wired-in smoke detectors, but it had to be done. These were quite easy to install, and the 10 year battery was a big plus!
Excellent product. Easy to install. Great customer service. One alarm didn't work because the activation tab was somewhat pulled out. I called the company and a new one was immediately shipped to me.
Response:We're glad we got that resolved for you. We apologize for the inconvenience.
I am very pleased with my purchase of the dual smoke and fire alarm. I also have two of their dual smoke, fire, and CO2 alarms. I plan to install 3 or 4 more of the dual smoke and fire alarms. USI was about the only company I found that had the dual smoke, and fire alarms, as well as the smoke, fire, and CO2 alarms. I have recommended these to other people.
I needed a whole house replacement for new construction detectors that were at end of life and got a good deal on upgraded 10 year battery models and got a few more carbon monoxide detectors to cover every bedroom and added a natural gas detector. Replacing the ceiling mount bracket and a couple wiring pig tails was not too hard. Very happy to not have to replace batteries and to have the best protection for my family.
Super easy to install, and looks elegant. With the 10-year battery backup, it's set and go and worry-free! I feel safe and well protected. Highly recommended!
I replaced all the smoke detectors in my house. I had excellent an experience with purchasing USI products and installing them.
I was looking to replace 20 year old hardwired smoke alarms. Just a little research revealed that smoke alarm tech has changed and UL has updated their specifications to match. You want to look for smoke alarms that meet UL 217 8th edition. The “8th†part is what changed. Many smoke alarm ads say they comply with UL 217 without specifying the edition, which probably means it does not meet the specs of the 8th edition. This model also has a 10 year battery that now is required in Maryland and many other states. None of the brands sold in the big box store such as Kidde and First Alert meet the new spec. They even still sell alarms with 9V batteries. I guess they need low cost offerings. That's how I ended up buying this USI smoke alarm. Installation was just like any other smoke alarm. If the house wiring to your smoke alarm has a third wire, this will cause all alarms to go off if any alarm goes off. Useful if you live in a large house.
