Carbon Monoxide Detector 10 Yr Life Twin Pack - Kidde 5CO
The Kidde 5CO twin pack is a convenient purchase to provide protection for you and your family against carbon monoxide. CO is invisible, odourless, tasteless, and undetectable by human senses, making an audible detector the only way to be warned of this deadly gas. The 5CO includes a 10-year sensor life and is supplied with 2 x Duracell AA alkaline batteries. This alarm continuously detects the CO levels within a room and can either be wall mounted or free standing, featuring a 7 year manufacturer’s warranty.

Poor quality product
Quality not as good as can be expected. Test button not and warnings lights very confusing. Better spending a couple of pounds extra and get a better product
