What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these hardwired photoelectric smoke detectors for straightforward installation and superior safety performance. Most highlight the quick setup process, often completing multiple units in under an hour with existing wiring compatibility. Many specifically chose photoelectric technology over ionization models, citing faster response to smoldering fires and fewer false alarms. Reviewers emphasize the peace of mind from replacing aging 10-20 year old units that produced persistent chirping. The included backup battery and clear instructions further simplify installation. A small number encountered minor mounting compatibility issues, but overall customers view this as a critical, worthwhile home safety upgrade.

Bought a dozen for the house. Several chirp for no reason. (Not consistent with anything in the instruction manual) I wonder how many people just pull these things out and hope for the best because nobody can still make a decent detector in 2022.

Didn't last long

Would Not Recommend

Installed 6 of these 18 months ago. Three of them are giving intermittent 3 beep alerts in the middle of the night. I am replacing them with Model 3120B and hoping for the best.

These are great for the price, and easy to install. They have a battery backup if the power happens to go out.

Testing gives off chips not friendly to dogs.

Would Recommend

This First Alert unit was accommodated by the First Alert unit already installed in home system. Bezel on ceiling worked with new unit as did pig tail from hard wired house unit previously installed.Tt
