Brk 1046802 Smoke Carbon Monoxide Alarm 10 Year Battery

Product Description

The BRK 1046802 is a combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarm powered by a sealed, non-removable 10-year battery. The integrated power source eliminates the need for periodic battery replacement over the life of the unit, making it well suited for new construction and retrofit residential installations. Once the 10-year battery is depleted, the entire unit is replaced. Licensed electricians and general contractors commonly install this type of device during rough-in or finish stages of construction, and it is equally appropriate for service upgrades by alarm technicians.

This combination alarm is designed for residential applications where both smoke detection and carbon monoxide detection are required in a single unit. It is appropriate for use in bedrooms, hallways, and living areas in single-family homes, apartments, and multi-family dwellings. The sealed battery design simplifies installation in locations where hardwired power is unavailable or impractical, and it reduces ongoing maintenance calls related to low-battery complaints.

Key Features

• Dual detection: monitors for both smoke and carbon monoxide in one unit
• 10-year sealed battery eliminates the need for battery replacement during product lifespan
• Battery-powered operation requires no hardwiring or AC power connection
• End-of-life alert signals when the unit should be replaced after 10 years
• Single-unit installation reduces hardware count compared to separate smoke and CO alarms

Compatibility

Designed as a standalone battery-powered combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarm suitable for standard residential ceiling and wall mounting applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should follow the manufacturer instructions, applicable local building codes, and NFPA 72 requirements for smoke alarm placement and CO alarm placement. Power down or isolate any nearby low-voltage systems before working in the installation area. No hardwire connections are required for this unit, but mounting location selection should comply with code requirements regarding distance from cooking appliances, bathrooms, and HVAC supply registers. Replace the entire unit at end of the 10-year service life rather than attempting to replace the sealed battery.
