Kidde Hardwired Smoke Alarm with Battery Backup

The Kidde Smoke Detector, model i12060A, is an AC/DC powered, ionization smoke alarm that operates on a 120V power source. In the event of a power failure, this hardwired smoke alarm comes equipped with a 9V battery backup. Using ionization sensing technology, the Kidde fire alarm detects invisible fire particles (associated with flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Kidde strongly recommends installing both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms to ensure maximum detection of the various types of fire that can occur within the home.

Designed for easy installation, the Kidde smoke detector includes a pre-stripped wiring harness with an easy-off cap. The front-load battery door makes it simple to replace the smoke alarm's battery backup without removing the alarm from the mounting bracket. Red LEDs indicate four modes of operation: Standby Mode (flashes every 40 seconds to indicate the smoke alarm is operating properly), Alarm Mode (alarm senses products of combustion), Alarm Memory (to indicate the alarm has been activated), and Hush mode (silences the alarm for approximately 7 minutes). A green LED indicates AC power.

The Kidde Hardwired Smoke Detector model i12060A is also available in two-pack, four-pack, and six-piece bulk pack options, catering to the needs of contractors and property owners who require an alarm for every room. The device is UL Certified and comes with a 10-year limited warranty, meeting the requirements of UL217, NFPA72, The State of California Fire Marshal, NFPA 101, FHA, and HUD.

With its ionization sensing technology, the hardwired smoke detector effectively identifies invisible fire particles, emitting an 85-decibel alarm to alert occupants of a fire. The smoke alarm's battery backup operation ensures continued protection during a power failure, allowing it to function on a 120V power source with a 9V battery housed in the front-load battery door.

Designed for whole-home family protection, the Kidde smoke detector can be easily installed on each level of the home and in bedrooms, providing comprehensive safety. The Test-Hush feature allows users to silence the smoke detector for approximately 7 minutes, ensuring convenient maintenance and testing.

Overall, the Kidde Smoke Detector, model i12060A, is a reliable, UL-certified, and user-friendly hardwired smoke alarm that offers advanced features to enhance fire safety in residential settings.
