Ocotber is Fire Prevention Month with First Alert Voice Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm review and giveaway

I am sure many of you know that October is Fire Prevention Month which is very important to me since I am a mom .  I regularly check our smoke detectors to make sure that my kids and my fiancee and I are all safe.  I recently learned about a new smoke detector by First Alert.  It is a combined smoke detector and carbon monoxide alarm.  Also there is another great thing about it is speaks to you.  Yes, you read that right it talks to warn you of smoke or carbon monoxide.


About the Product

Studies show voice alarms are more effective at waking sleeping children than the standard beeping alarms.The First Alert SC07CN-C Combination Talking Smoke Alarm and Carbon Monoxide Detector not only tells you what part of the home is in danger, but whether the danger is smoke or carbon monoxide. Children may have higher energy levels within sleep, making all stages of a child’s sleep deeper and harder to disturb than adults, so a voice alarm that provides relevance can be more effective.
The SC07CN-C is unique because it features two alarm systems that work independently to detect both evidence of fire and carbon monoxide (CO). It’s easy to program with 11 pre-programmed home locations. This alarm is powered by two 'AA' batteries (which are included) and easy to replace without removing the alarm from the ceiling to change a battery. The SCO7CN-C uses an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor-the most accurate CO sensor available. It also uses photoelectric sensing technology, which provides optimal protection from smoldering fires and reduces false alarms like those caused by cooking smoke and shower steam. The SC07CN-C even stores CO readings and verbally communicates the highest level of CO detected, so you can easily discern patterns that indicate it's time to check your appliances or other combustible items for CO leaks. There is a mute button to silence any nuisance alarms that may occur and the single button tests all alarm functions. Smoke alarms like the SC07CN-C are the easiest, most cost-effective way to keep your family safe from fire. The more smoke alarms you have installed in your home, the more your safety increases


My Thoughts

This alarm is wonderful. I mean it really puts your mind at ease.  I love the fact that it tells you where the alert is for and what kind it is.   I really like that the smoke and carbon monoxide are both in one alarm. Plus I think my kids will respond more to the talking than the old fashioned buzzing noise like the normal ones.  They hardly wake up at the alarm clock buzzing so I have often worry bout the smoke alarm buzzing.  Also the alarm is easy to set up.  This is a must have for a home with kids or someone who tends to sleep through buzzing. 

You can purchase the alarm and other First Alert alarms at First Alert.  the above alarm is on sale right now for $37.99 so hurry fast while it is on sale.
