The USI AMI1061SB 2-in-1 Sensing Plus® Hardwired Smoke and Fire Alarm provides 10 years of continuous protection against deadly threats in the home. This 8th generation smoke detector uses New Sensing Plus® Multi-Criteria Detection that provides the benefits of both photoelectric and ionization alarms in one device to protect against fast flaming and slow smoldering fires. Perfect for new or replacement installations, this USI Electric Smoke Detector is suitable for houses, apartments and mobile homes. This 2-in-1 alarm includes a 10 year lithium free battery backup that will never have to be replaced throughout the life of the detector, giving you a decade's worth in peace of mind even in the event of a power outage.

10 Year Permanent Power also saves money from battery replacements (up to $38.00 over the 10-year life of the alarm), eliminates annoying low battery chirps and helps the environment by reducing environmental waste from disposed batteries. This hardwired smoke and fire alarm features microprocessor intelligence that assists in completely eliminating nuisance alarms, a single silence/test button to quiet a non-hazardous alarm and an end-of-service life warning that sounds when it's time to replace the smoke detector's battery (approximately 10-years from activation).

Perfect for replacing existing Universal Electric Smoke Alarms, this hardwired smoke and fire detector features a large mounting base to cover imperfections in drywall and the option to replace retrofitting applications. The quick activation battery pull tab makes it easy to install while the deactivation key switches the alarm off and makes the batteries safe for disposal. Once the 10 year smoke and fire alarm is deactivated, the tamper resistant feature turns on to prevent deactivated alarms from being reinstalled.

Bring Your Home up to Code with 8th Generation Alarms

Guide To Replacing Your USI-1204 Smoke & Fire Alarm With A Comparable Model

  • 1 To begin, you'll want to turn off the electricity to the smoke alarm circuit. You'll know the power is off when the green LED light on the alarm is no longer lit. You'll now be able to twist off the front of the USI-1204. This will allow you to disconnect the alarm from the front of its base.
  • 2 You'll now be able to unscrew the USI-1204 base from the wall. Do not remove the screws from the ceiling as you'll be using them for the new alarm. Pull down the detector once it's loose to expose the wire nuts. Unscrew the wire nuts to finish uninstalling the USI-1204.
  • 3 You'll begin by installing the AMI1061SB's mounting bracket to the screws still attached to the wall. Unlike the previous model, the AMI1061SB comes equipped with a quick connector. You'll be using this quick connector to connect the corresponding wires to each other with the screw wire nuts.
  • 4 You can now plug in the quick connector into the back of the alarm. Be sure to snap the connector in tightly to ensure everything is properly connected. You can now twist the alarm into the mounting bracket you secured earlier. Do not turn on the breaker until the AMI1061SB and any other alarms are connected. It's now safe to flip your breaker back on. You'll want to press the Test Button to make sure the alarm is operating (also check to see if the LED is green).
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I REPLACE THE BATTERY IN MY SMOKE, CO AND NATURAL GAS ALARMS?
Many of our alarms come with a 10-year sealed Permanent Power battery that never needs replacing during the 10 year life of the alarm. Batteries in non sealed alarms should be replaced at least once a year or when the low battery signal sounds. Permanent Power battery technology helps keep you safe, because working smoke alarms are an important factor in surviving a home fire.
WHERE SHOULD I INSTALL SMOKE ALARMS?
Early detection of smoke, carbon monoxide, and natural gas is key to saving lives. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends installing a smoke alarm on every level of your home, including finished attics and basements. You are also encouraged to install a smoke detector inside every bedroom and at the top of certain stairways.
DO I NEED FOUR KINDS OF DETECTORS?
You never know what kind of hazard will strike your home, or when. That's why we recommend technology that can detect carbon monoxide (CO) and natural gas as well as smoke and fire. You'll get the most protection from devices that can quickly and accurately detect and respond to a range of threats.
WHAT ARE "NUISANCE ALARMS"?
A smoke alarm that goes off when there's no emergency is annoying. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), such "nuisance alarms" are the leading reason why homeowners intentionally disable their smoke detectors. Yet doing so can be deadly. A survey conducted by the NFPA found that smoke alarms sounded in only half of the home fires reported to U.S. fire departments, and almost two-thirds of home fire deaths resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms.
What IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AMI1061SC and AMI1061SB ALARMS?
The AMI1061SB ("B" version) comes in easy open box packaging. The AMI1061SC ("C" version) comes in blister card packaging. The only difference between these two models is the packaging.
WHAT ARE 8th GENERATION ALARMS?
8th generation smoke alarms, featuring advanced multi-criteria smoke and fire sensors, represent a significant leap in fire protection technology. Complying with UL 217 8th Edition standards, USI 8th edition alarms incorporate the latest innovations to enhance fire detection. USI Sensing Plus technology, a hallmark of 8th generation detectors, offers superior protection against both fast flaming and slow smoldering fires while significantly reducing nuisance alarms.
IS THIS AN 8th GENERATION SMOKE DETECTOR?
Yes, all USI Sensing Plus Detectors meet new UL 217 8th Edition requirements for smoke alarms

Very satisfied

Invested in new detectors for whole house: hard wired smoke, smoke and CO with sealed battery backup, sealed battery smoke and CO. Had to rewire as different plug than older units. Took a few hours almost 20 units, but straightforward. Happy with decision, purchase, and products.
