Kidde 2070-VASR

The 2070-VASR is an AC/DC powered smoke alarm that features the new Kidde TruSense multi-criteria optical smoke sensor, voice notifications, and easy to use front load battery door. As home furnishings and construction materials have transitioned to the use of synthetic materials, which may react differently in a home fire, the industry standards for smoke alarms have changed. Smoke alarms will be required to pass both flaming and smoldering polyurethane tests, as well as a “nuisance test” whereby devices must not alarm when subjected to certain types of cooking. Kidde’s TruSense Technology meets the latest industry standards to respond to these types of fires, and helps reduce cooking nuisance alarms. Users will be alerted to actual fire emergencies and won’t be as tempted to disable an alarm to avoid nuisance alarms.
