Frequently asked questions
What indoor air quality parameters does this alarm measure?
The unit measures Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOCs) from household cleaners or building materials, relative humidity percentage, and ambient room temperature.
How do mobile notifications work?
Connected via your home 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi router, the Kidde app sends real-time push alerts to your smartphone if smoke, CO, or poor air quality is detected.
Does Wi-Fi work during a power outage?
Wi-Fi features require 120V AC power. In a power outage, the sealed lithium battery continues to power local 85 dB audible smoke and carbon monoxide detection.
Is a subscription fee required for the Kidde app?
No. Basic monitoring, alert notifications, and air quality status tracking in the Kidde app are free without monthly subscription charges.
Can this alarm interconnect with existing non-smart Kidde hardwired alarms?
Yes. When connected via hardwire interconnect, if an existing non-smart Kidde alarm triggers, the smart alarm detects it and can send a mobile alert to your phone.
