Firex smoke alarm where to buy

Delivery times were excellent. I had to rewire the connector but this was an easy process. Would definitely recommend safefiredirect. Martin from Harlow Rating:. Good replacement for firex c.

I choose this one as it has a 10year internal rechargeable battery. No need to worry about changing it every year. I did have to rewire the new plug on to the existing terminals but there is only 3 connections so if you can wire up a plug you can wire one of these up.

We took all alarms down and clean them per instructions from Kidde as "there may be construction dust in the units". We also replaced all batteries with brand spanking new batteries, even through they came with battery backups in addition to the hardwiring, but per Kidde's instructions the batteries may need replaced. Week after week the alarms would sound. Called Kidde for replacements and of course, they won't replace them, but want to run "tests" of which alarm is setting the other 12 off.

So, one by one, when an alarm would go off ALWAYS at 2am , we'd get up, remove the battery and the entire unit from the hardwire leave it unplugged for a few weeks and nothing would go off.

Just when we would start sleeping, it would set off the whole system again. So for the past 2 years, we have "tested" each unit. Currently, we have 4 of our 13 units unplugged as we "think" they are the faulty ones, but there is nothing on the alarm itself to indicate an issue.

The green light is on and then the wick red to indicate all is functioning properly. This is absolutely dangerous. We never once have receive a beep, a verbal warning, or full red light to indicate a low battery, which we have religiously replaced every 6 months in every unit with brand new batteries , but instead get the beep, beep, "fire, fire" beep beep.

This is an absolute risk to my family. Originally, the fire alarm would wake my entire household 4 total and we'd all wake up, search the house, and prep for evacuation. I have ran all the tests, cleaning, new batteries, and everything that Kidde has recommended.

This is an absolutely ridiculous piece of junk that should be recalled and replaced. There should never be anything shouting Fire, fire if there is not fire. I've used dry chemical sponge without success. Contacted customer service at Kidde and after 18 days am awaiting explanation and cause. The response I received 3 days ago after 2nd attempt to contact resulted in "never heard of the problem" and wanted more information and photos from me.

Sent, still waiting. I haven't found any other consumers online complaining about this, but my handyman indicated that he's run into this as some emission from the ionization component. I just want to get these stains removed from my painted walls and crown moulding. Apparently Kidde customer services is not so interested.
