Product Overview
Protect your home with the First Alert SCO500, a battery‑operated, dual‑sensor alarm that detects both smoke and carbon monoxide in one device. This model wirelessly interconnects with up to 18 compatible First Alert wireless alarms via a built‑in mesh network—no Wi‑Fi or internet required—so when one alarm sounds, they all sound. A photoelectric smoke sensor helps reduce nuisance alarms from cooking smoke or steam, while an advanced electrochemical sensor detects CO leaks from fuel‑burning appliances. The alarm features a loud 85 dB siren plus a spoken voice alert with 11 programmable room locations to identify the type and location of the threat.
