Product Datasheets
The following datasheets are available for this product.
Q. Can you zero the peak level on a Kidde CO detector, and if so how?
A. The best way to make sure the system is definitely zeroed is to press an hold the peak button first. While the peak number is still showing, continue to hold the peak button then press and hold the test and reset button whilst the first button is still held down. This should visibly reset the counter.
If the unit continues to display between 20-30ppm directly after this process, then this could be indicative of a fault. If it shows zero straight away after the reset, then returns to 20-30ppm the next time it is checked, this would indicate a low level of CO being present in the house. At those low levels it would not be immediately harmful, but would definitely warrant investigation as soon as possible.
Q. Is this CO Detector compliant with all relevant standards to allow me to place it in a tenanted property as I am a landlord?
A. Yes, this CO alarm has been Kitemarked to EN 50291-1: 2010 and has been awarded a CE mark. It should be installed in line with the manufacturers guidance.

Great alarm, easy to fit
This is a good product as you never need to fit new batteries and it requires no wiring. Ideal for landlords.
The bad bit (why I only rated it Good not Excellent). In my opinion the instructions are poor as regarding suitable locations for the alarm. It said do not fit this alarm in a kitchen. I needed to fit in an open plan kitchen/diner. I phoned Safelincs for guidance and they were very helpful but said they were surprised that it shouldn't be fitted in a kitchen as that flew in the face of all the information they normally rely on. I tried phoning Kidde, but their "Technical Support" comprises an answerphone that is checked twice a day! How rubbish is that?
On co-bealarmed dot co dot uk it clearly advises the fitting of CO alarms in kitchens.

Appears to do the job!
I assume it works ok, I wont know unless I have a leak though. The small screen with a display showing carbon monoxide level is particularly useful for me and has reassured me that I can use my elderly gas fire.

Hopefully will never be put to the test
The Kidde 8LLDCO-KE8LLDCOUKB Carbon Monoxide Detector appears solidly built, is small in size, comes with good 'word of mouth' and that's about all one can say. The instructions for fixing it and the fixings themselves are logical and robust. About the only negative is that it periodically flashes. (presumably this is a cosmetic 'reasurance' that the unit is functioning, although given that it also has a digital read-out, this would seem to be unnecessary0. I don't recall this feature in the instructions that came with the unit and had I known in advance, I probably would have mounted the unit in a different position in the bedroom, (being a minor night-time irritant or reassurance, depending on your viewpoint).
