Ademco Inc. 1046795 Smoke Carbon Monoxide Alarm

Product Description

The ADEMCO INC. 1046795 is a battery-operated combination photoelectric smoke and carbon monoxide alarm designed for residential life-safety applications. The unit integrates a photoelectric smoke sensor with an electrochemical CO sensor in a single device, detecting threats from faulty fuel-burning appliances, blocked chimneys, and other combustion sources. When a hazard is detected, the alarm triggers both a loud audible alert and a voice announcement identifying the type and location of the danger. Installation requires no hardwiring, making it suitable for retrofits and new builds alike.

This alarm is intended for residential use in homes, apartments, and similar occupancies where both smoke and CO detection is required. It mounts on a wall or ceiling with a low-profile footprint that fits standard installation locations. The battery-operated design allows placement in areas without accessible wiring. Local and state building codes increasingly require combination smoke and CO alarms in sleeping areas, hallways, and near fuel-burning appliances, so confirming local code compliance before installation is recommended.
