Plug-In Carbon Monoxide Alarms: Maneuverable Room to Room Carbon Monoxide Detection
There is something inherently convenient about being able to plug in a carbon monoxide alarm. You can simply plug in a carbon monoxide detector into a standard wall outlet and have immediate access to co detection. This makes plug-in carbon monoxide alarms a popular choice for those who want to avoid the installation process of a hardwired or battery operated detector.
Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is annually linked to the deaths of at least 430 people in the United States. It's also responsible for nearly 50,000 people visiting the emergency department each year due to CO poisoning. These are frightening statistics that should really reinforce the importance of protecting homes and families from this very dangerous and all too lethal threat. Compounding matters is the reality of many families spending more and more time indoors. With the fall season approaching (and an increased dependence on carbon monoxide emitting furnaces and other heat sources), the opportunity for undetected carbon monoxide finding its way into homes naturally rises. Protect yourself and the ones you love with First Alert Carbon Monoxide Alarms. The First Alert Store offers elite co protection in the form of plug-in carbon monoxide alarms.
Let's take a closer look at two First Alert Plug-In Carbon Monoxide Detectors that excel in the protection and convenience front.
- The First Alert CO600 Basic Plug-In Carbon Monoxide Alarm uses an advanced electrochemical sensor to quickly identify traces of co in the surrounding area. Equipped with a loud 85 dB siren, this plug in carbon monoxide alarm is capable of alerting even the soundest of sleepers. A mute button and end of life alert (will activate when it’s time to replace the alarm) round out a series of features for a very reliable and easy to install co detector.
- The First Alert CO615 Plug-In Carbon Monoxide Alarm w/ Battery Backup & Digital Display also uses an advanced electrochemical sensor to swiftly detect traces of co. Equipped with a backlit digital display, this plug in co detector shows the alarm’s current power as well as carbon monoxide levels in the surrounding area. This plug in co detector also comes equipped with a battery backup that will continue to search for traces of carbon monoxide in the event of a power outage. This will afford you additional levels in peace of mind when it comes to setting up this plug in co alarm.
* When installing plug in carbon monoxide alarms, you’ll want to make sure that at least one is placed on every level of your home. You’ll also want to install a co detector in areas where people regularly sleep.
