Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarms
Published April 2, 2025 · Recall initiated: February 12, 2004
What's the hazard
The recalled units fail to detect carbon monoxide after 1 year of operation, due to an internal software error. These CO alarms do not provide an "end of life" signal or other indication of inoperability, even if the test button is depressed.
What to do
Consumers should contact their system installer or service provider to arrange for the free installation of a replacement CO alarm.
