Customer Reviews For The USI Sensing Plus Smoke and Fire Alarm With 10 Year Battery
Ordered six of these online. Spoke to a salesperson first, very helpful. Units were very simple to install. Much more comfortable knowing these are a combination alarm.
These units replaced several older ones over 10-years old... advanced, compact, and easy to install and test.
After thorough review of brands and features I chose Sensing Plus because it has the most current 2022 industry standards for smoke alarms. They were easy to install in the same location as the old ones that were other brands. I ordered directly from USI Store to ensure they weren't expired or had been sitting in inclement weather.
I've been looking for a detector that doesn't give error beeps when in high humidity. Given my location in the tropics this works great so far!
The Universal Security Instruments AMI3051SB 2-in-1 Sensing Plus® Smoke and Fire Alarm provides 10 years of continuous protection against deadly threats in the home. New Sensing Plus® Multi-Criteria Detection provides the benefits of both photoelectric and ionization alarms in one device to protect against fast flaming and slow smoldering fires. Perfect for new or replacement installations, this USI Smoke Detector is suitable for houses, apartments and mobile homes. The sealed battery (included) will never have to be replaced throughout the life of the alarm, giving you a decade's worth in peace of mind even in the event of a power outage.
10 Year Permanent Power also saves money from battery replacements (up to $38.00 over the 10-year life of the alarm), eliminates annoying low battery chirps and helps the environment by reducing environmental waste from disposed batteries. This smoke and fire detector features microprocessor intelligence that assists in completely eliminating nuisance alarms, a single silence/test button to quiet a non-hazardous alarm and an end-of-service life warning that sounds when it's time to replace the smoke detector's battery (approximately 10-years from activation).
Perfect for replacing existing USI Smoke Detectors, this smoke and fire alarm features a large mounting base to cover imperfections in drywall and the option to replace retrofitting applications. The quick activation battery pull tab makes it easy to install while the deactivation key switches the alarm off and makes the batteries safe for disposal. Once the 10 year smoke and fire alarm is deactivated, the tamper resistant feature turns on to prevent deactivated alarms from being reinstalled.
