The Kidde P3010CUCA is a 10-year, sealed battery, smoke and carbon monoxide alarm that features photoelectric and electrochemical sensing technology with a Hush® feature and a voice warning to help identify the danger.

The alarm will automatically activate when it is attached to the mounting bracket; there are no pull-tabs, no switches, everything is automatic. At the end of alarm life, the unit will chirp, indicating the alarm is in need of replacement. The customer can use a simple tool such as a screwdriver to deactivate the unit, stopping the chirp and making it safe for disposal.

This smoke alarm uses photoelectric sensing technology. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles (associated with slow smouldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles (associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Leading authorities recommend that both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help ensure maximum detection of the various types of fires that can occur within the home.

• Combined Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm: A single unit can be installed where previously, two were needed. Reduces installation time and protects against both fire and carbon monoxide dangers
• Intelligent Sensor Technology: Combines the detection capabilities of a photoelectric smoke sensor with that of an electrochemical sensor, to better differentiate between a real hazard and a false one
• 10-Year Sealed Lithium Battery: Eliminates the need to replace the battery. No battery to replace for the life of the alarm (10 years)
• Voice Warning: Announces the hazard type detected (in English and French)
• Multi-function One Button Design includes:
• Hush® Feature: Temporarily silences nuisance alarms for approximately 9 minutes (smoke must be present before Hush® is activated)
• Test Feature: Simultaneously tests the unit's electronics and verifies alarm operation
• Tamper Resist Feature: Unit will lock to mounting bracket to deter theft or tampering
