 Dual Sensor Smoke Alarms December 22, 2008
Midwest Consumer
The Kidde PI2000 Hardwire Dual Sensor Alarms (photoelectric and ionization) were ordered as replacements for my existing single sensor (ionization) smoke/fire alarms. The new smoke/fire alarms appear to be very high quality and were relatively easy to install. (15-20 minutes per alarm) While I found limited reviews for Dual Sensor Hardwired Alarms. I ordered these based on Kidde reputation, and primarily because of a local news story I saw that indicated that ionization single sensor smoke/fire alarms are not set off by smoltering smokey fires, but by flash fires/ heat of flames. There was a local fatality associated with a smokey fire, and the family's smoke/fire alarms did not have the photoelectric sensors. Hearing that story and understanding the differences in the types of detection, as well as realizing I had ionization single sensor alarms in my home, was all it took for me to order the Kidde PI2000 Dual Sensor Alarms. Let's hope they are never used!!

I choose this unit because it was the only model that had both types of sensors and was made for hard wire applications. It installed easily without any problems. What else can I say except that I hope I never have a fire, but if I do, I hope this unit will perform as expected!

I just purchased two of these IP2000 units direct from Amazon and the date code on both was August 2008, *within 60 days of my purchase. After doing alot of research, I found there are few units like this that offer dual sensors.
