Kidde RF-SND manual Five Year Limited Warranty

RF-SND specifications

The Kidde RF-SND is a sophisticated combination smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) alarm that integrates advanced features and technologies to enhance home safety. As a vital addition to household safety systems, it employs cutting-edge sensing technologies designed to provide reliable protection against both smoke and harmful carbon monoxide emissions.

One of the standout features of the Kidde RF-SND is its dual-sensor capability. The alarm utilizes a photoelectric sensor to detect smoke from slow-burning fires, such as those caused by smoldering furniture, while its ionization sensor efficiently responds to fast-burning fires, such as those generated by paper and flammable liquids. This dual approach significantly improves the alarm’s ability to accurately identify different fire types and reduces the likelihood of false alarms, ensuring that users receive timely alerts when it matters most.

The RF-SND also incorporates a high-performance carbon monoxide sensor, which continuously monitors CO levels in the home. This feature is crucial, as carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that can be deadly in high concentrations. The RF-SND activates when CO levels surpass a predetermined threshold, giving inhabitants essential time to react and evacuate.

A notable characteristic of the Kidde RF-SND is its wireless interconnectivity feature, which allows multiple alarms to communicate with each other. When one unit detects smoke or CO, all interconnected alarms sound, providing an early warning throughout the house. This is particularly beneficial for larger homes, as it ensures that alerts are heard regardless of where they originate.

Powering the Kidde RF-SND is an easy-to-change battery system, ensuring continuous operation without the hassle of hardwiring. Additionally, the unit is equipped with a voice alarm feature that announces the type of danger detected, whether it’s smoke or carbon monoxide, allowing homeowners to make informed decisions during emergencies.

The Kidde RF-SND model is also designed with user-friendly installation in mind. Its compact, modern design fits seamlessly into any home decor, and included installation materials make setup straightforward. Users can easily test and silence the alarm with a single button, further enhancing the overall convenience.

In summary, the Kidde RF-SND combines advanced sensing technologies, wireless interconnectivity, and user-centric features, making it a comprehensive solution for fire and carbon monoxide safety in homes. Its ability to provide critical alerts and protect lives is paramount, solidifying its place as a trusted device in residential safety.
