Check the manufacture dates on your existing alarm
Would RecommendMoved into our house in 2023, and only recently discovered that the 3 detectors should have been replaced in 2005, which meant they were installed (manufactured) in 1995; now 20 years past their life expectancy. They were both BRK detectors, so I got direct replacements. The mounting ring had changed in 30 years, but that was no problem to replace, and the existing hardwiring was still compatible.

Large flange base
Large enough base flange to cover the area left by the old smoke detector. Nice product.
Complete set of detectors, batteries and wiring.
Would RecommendThey were easy to install; good quality; and a fair price to replace the old detectors in my house.
