Ademco Inc. 1046848 Hardwire Smoke Alarm 120V

Product Description

The ADEMCO INC. 1046848 is a hardwired smoke alarm designed for residential life-safety applications. It operates on 120 volts AC power and includes a 10-year 9V battery backup to maintain protection during power outages. The alarm features interconnect capability, allowing multiple units to be wired together so that when one alarm triggers, all connected alarms sound simultaneously. This unit is suitable for installation by licensed electricians or qualified HVAC and fire-safety contractors in residential settings.

This smoke alarm is intended for residential use in single-family homes, multi-unit dwellings, or any living space requiring code-compliant smoke detection. The interconnect function supports whole-home early warning coverage when multiple alarms are linked across floors or rooms. The 10-year sealed battery backup eliminates the need for routine battery replacement during the life of the backup cell, reducing maintenance calls and callbacks.
