Product Description


Amazon.com Product Description
Offering breakthrough technology to produce maximum protection for your family, the Kidde KN-COSM-XTR-B intelligent alarm combines fire, smoke, and carbon monoxide (CO) alarms into a single device. And more than just beeping alerts, the KN-COSM-XTR-B supplies voice warnings that clearly state the present danger-- announcing either "Fire! Fire!" or "Warning! Carbon Monoxide!" And if you don't presently have a CO detector, it's never been a much better time to add one as an escalating number of state and nearby governments are passing legislation that will require 1 in your household.

Kidde KN-COSM-XTR-BIntelligent AlarmAt a Glance:
  • Combined carbon monoxide and smoke alarm
  • Voice alarm announces hazard kind (either "Fire! Fire!" or "Warning! Carbon monoxide!")
  • Two flashing LEDs--green for typical operation, red for alarm
  • Powered by 3 AA batteries
  • Seven-year limited warranty



Characteristics
The KN-COSM-XTR-B intelligent alarm presents a rapid response to true fires, including smoldering and rapid-flaming, as well as protects you from carbon monoxide. The intelligent alarm combines the detection capabilities of an ionization smoke sensor--which is a great deal more most likely to detect smaller, much less visible fire particles, like those created by flaming fires--with those of an electrochemical sensor, which is applied to detect CO. Since carbon monoxide is present in all fires, having both detection chambers perform together is perfect.
When either sensor notices a prospective hazard, it communicates with the other. Based on what is detected, the alarm adjusts its smoke sensitivity in order to improved discriminate in between a true hazard and a false 1. If fire is detected, a red LED flashes when three long beeps are sounded, followed by a verbal warning message of "Fire! Fire!" If carbon monoxide is detected, 4 brief alarm beeps sound, followed by a voice alert of "Warning! Carbon monoxide!"
Other attributes include things like a low-battery warning, a hush feature that silences nuisance alarms, a test/reset button, and a peak CO level memory. It's powered by three AA batteries, and it's backed by a seven-year restricted warranty.

From the Manufacturer
The Kidde KN-COSM-XTR-B makes use of breakthrough technologies to present a rapidly response to genuine fires, including smoldering and rapid-flaming, as nicely as protecting you from carbon monoxide and significantly reducing the likelihood of nuisance alarms. In addition, this intelligent alarm consists of a voice warning that clearly states the present danger, smoke or carbon monoxide, and announces “Fire! Fire!” or “Warning Carbon Monoxide.” It combines the detection capabilities of an ionization smoke sensor which is alot more most likely to detect smaller, much less visible fire particles, like those developed by flaming fires with that of an electrochemical sensor, which is used to detect CO. Since carbon monoxide is present in all fires, getting each detection chambers operate together in a single alarm is a breakthrough in the fire safety sector. When either sensor notices a prospective hazard, it will communicate with the other. Depending on what is detected, the alarm will adjust its smoke sensitivity in order to improved discriminate among a genuine hazard and a false 1. This constant communication enhances the alarm's overall efficiency in all fires, and substantially reduces the possible for a nuisance alarm.

Customer Reviews


When I first bought my house, a friend of mine recommended replacing all my smoke detectors with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Smartly, I took his advise and replaced all of them with these.
A couple years later, one evening, my daughter was in bed and me and my wife was just about to head to bed the Kidde detector starts yelling, "Warning - Carbon Monoxide".
Freaked me out. Got everyone out of the house and called 911. Fire department came out and shut the gas off to the appliances and cleared the house. It turned out to be the gas water heater which needed a little maintenance.
It scares me to think of what could have happened if I didn't have this Smoke/Carbon Monoxide detector.
So, I highly recommend this detector for everyone. Really, just get it...

The Kidde KN-COSM-XTR-B Intelligent Alarm, Combination Carbon Monoxide, Fire and Smoke detector is replacing a very similar Kidde alarm that finally died after several years of faithful service.
I looked at "First Alert" alarms as I have heard good things about them years ago (30 years ago), but after reading the reviews on First Alert alarms it became obvious that things have changed and there seemed to be some problems now with them. Apparently they are malfunctioning in a number of ways.
So I stuck with Kidde as it had served me well in the past, and purchased one very similar to the outgoing Kidde. The nice thing about doing that is that the new one fits on the old mount. All I had to do was put the batteries (included) in the new one and twist it onto the old mount and then enjoy the rest of my day! Life is good!
