Description
The Kidde Firex i4618 is an AC/DC powered, ionization smoke alarm that operates on a 120V power source with 9V battery backup. This alarm uses ionization sensing technology. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles (associated with flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible particles (associated with smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms.
The front-loading battery door allows user to change the battery without removing the alarm from the mounting bracket. This makes battery replacement easy and convenient.
This unit is a UL Listed product with a 5-year limited warranty. Kidde strongly recommends installing both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms to help insure maximum detection of the various types of fire that can occur within the home.
