This is an excellent alarm for rental because it does not have a backup battery which a tenant might not replace when needed.

July 6, 2022First Alert Plug-In Carbon Monoxide Alarm
We recently bought a condo and noticed there was an old carbon monoxide detector plugged in. After checking it out and realizing it was past its lifetime, we thought it would be a good idea to purchase a new one. After investigating the matter, it turned out the replacement was the First Alert. Can't believe we never had invested in one before. And it appears as though we chose the right detector from the right company. inexpensive and easy to install & maintain. Should never be without a carbon monoxide detector! Mike Swartz Creek, MI

Just recently purchased c0600 plug-in alarm and so far it appears to be functioning as suppose to. This is a replacement as my original notified me it was time to replace by the extended beeps. Well made product, nice features, and a plug-in all in one.

May 2, 2021The product packaging was appropriate, with the product presented thoughtfully and protected fully, but not overpackaged. I plugged it in and the light went on and I assume it is working.

Replacement of older carbon monoxide alarm that alerted me that it was time to replace unit after 7 years. I bought the same model. Simple to use & test. Prompt mailing, solid packaging.

March 22, 2021Good product
This alarm doesn't have the bells and whistles of more expensive models but provides the security I want. It does not operate on batteries, which is okay with me because if I lose power, the furnace won't run anyway.

Like the CO600 model for my rental properties because it does not have a back up battery, which the tenants would not replace if needed.

Here are a few situations that may cause a carbon monoxide alarm "false alarm:"
- The carbon monoxide alarm needs to be relocated. Carbon monoxide alarms should be located 15-20 feet away from all fossil fuel burning sources like furnaces and stoves. Alarms should be located 10 feet away from sources of humidity like showers.
- Fossil fuel burning appliances may not be burning fuel completely. Check pilot lights/flames for blue color. Appearance of yellow or orange flames indicates incomplete combustion-a source of carbon monoxide.
Basic Plug-In Carbon Monoxide Alarm
The First Alert CO600 Plug-In Carbon Monoxide Alarm utilizes an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor that lasts for up to five years to detect carbon monoxide. This carbon monoxide detector plugs into any wall outlet. When carbon monoxide levels become elevated, a loud 85-decibel alarm alerts you to the threat.
Advanced Electrochemical CO Sensor
The First Alert CO600 Plug-In Carbon Monoxide Alarm uses an advanced electrochemical CO sensor to detect elevated carbon monoxide levels. When CO is detected, the carbon monoxide detector sounds an alarm to warn you of the threat. Carbon monoxide can’t be seen, smelled, or tasted in the air, and it is the leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in America. Placing carbon monoxide detectors on every floor of the home and in each sleeping room is an important way to protect your family from danger.
Comprehensive Warning Features
This carbon monoxide detector features an 85-decibel siren that is designed to wake even the soundest of sleepers. A low-battery light and alarm alert you when battery power is running low, and an end-of-life timer lets you know when the device should be replaced. The CO detector lasts approximately five years.
Simple and Easy to Use
The First Alert CO600 Carbon Monoxide Alarm is easy to set up. Simply plug the alarm into a 120-volt wall outlet, and the CO detector will start to monitor your space for carbon monoxide. There are no complicated displays or settings to navigate–a single button silences the alarm and tests the CO detector. A pull-down action chart instructs you in what to do if the CO alarm goes off.
Where to Place Carbon Monoxide Alarms: One on every level of the home and one in each sleeping area.
