Smoke Alarms Prevent Home Fire Deaths
Every year, 70 percent of all home fire deaths occur in homes with no alarms or no working alarms, while nearly one quarter of smoke alarms in reported fires are not working. Installing smoke alarms like the i9040 in your home can provide reliable protection in case of fire. And because the i9040 offers several user-friendly features, you'll always know when it's working properly, and when the batteries need to be replaced.

Compact Unit Provides Protection Against Home Fires
Measuring just four inches in diameter, the i9040 is smaller and more discrete than traditional smoke alarms, which makes it an ideal choice for smaller spaces or for blending in with your decor. It installs quickly without wires, and includes a test button that allows you to periodically check the circuitry, horn, and battery function. Also, a chirping sound makes it clear when it's time to replace the battery.

Ionization Sensor Technology
To ensure early detection of fires, the i9040 use ionization sensing technology Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles (associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles (associated with slow smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms. Kidde strongly recommends that both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help insure maximum detection of the various types of fires that can occur within the home.

Compliancy and Warranty Information
The i9040 alarm is UL listed and is backed by a three-year limited warranty.

The Kidde i9040 Smoke And Fire Alarm That I Had Ordered,I Could Have Sworn It Said It Was A Smoke And Carbon Monoxide Detector So I Ordered Three (3).I Wrote An Email To The Company A Couple Of Weeks Ago And Never Received A Reply.

I Wanted To Exchange Them For A Better Product But Apparently They Must Be To Busy To Answer There Emails!

Never worked, it was dead on arrival - it either doesn't' work at all or works intermittently, tried different batteries, tried leaving the battery out for a while. I certainly wouldn't trust the safety of my family on this fire alarm


1 out of 5 stars Get a First Alert alarm instead--   August 1, 2009

The fire alarm instructions don't tell you that you need a drill, screwdriver, hammer. Nor do they explain the little plastic screw anchors that come with the unit. Get a "First Alert" alarm instead--they are better made. An alarm with shoddy instructions was probably built sloppily.


2 out of 5 stars Screw heads break off   July 1, 2009

1 out of 4 found this review helpful

These smoke alarms looked like a good buy, but when we tried to install them (using a manual screwdriver), the screw heads broke off in our ceiling, leaving the shanks embedded in the wood. We removed them with pliers (with some difficulty) and then installed the alarms with new screws of our own. The poor qualilty of the screws caused us an unreasonable amount of extra work and frustration. We have not had the alrarms long enough to comment on their longevity.


5 out of 5 stars Great little alarm at a fantastic price   November 25, 2008
D. Houston (Louisville, KY USA)
I wanted to install some extra smoke alarms in my law office and bought 3 of these. They are perfect. About 4 inches in diameter, they were easy to install and are not even noticed by visitors. Each tests fine and I sleep better at night with the extra protection. Great value at under $8 each. 5 stars. Will likely buy more
