Deliver 2-in-1 home protection with the BRK SC6W10 Hardwired Combination Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Alarm. Powered by a 120V AC hardwired connection and supported by a 10-year sealed backup battery, this dual-sensor safety device ensures continuous, 24/7 protection against both smoldering fire hazards and dangerous carbon monoxide gas—without ever requiring a battery change for the life of the unit.
Featuring advanced photoelectric Precision Detection technology for smoke and an electrochemical sensor for CO gas, the SC6W10 provides early warnings while minimizing false alarms caused by routine cooking. Equipped with SoftCue™ replacement reminder technology, the alarm alerts users with gentle sound and light cues before low-battery chirps become disruptive. Standardized mounting brackets, an optional coverage trim ring, and full interconnectivity with BRK's connected safety ecosystem (including the SC5 Smart Alarm) make it an ideal choice for contractors and modern home upgrades.
2-in-1 Combination Protection: Detects both smoke and invisible carbon monoxide gas within a single compact housing.
10-Year Sealed Battery Backup: Operates on 120V AC hardwire power with a maintenance-free 10-year backup battery—no battery replacements required.
SoftCue™ Replacement Reminders: Emits soft audio and visual notifications to signal low battery status, reducing nuisance middle-of-the-night chirps.
Connected Safety System Interoperability: Integrates with BRK interconnectable safety networks and smart devices, including the BRK SC5.
Streamlined Retrofit Finish: Ships with standardized mounting brackets and an optional Trim Ring to cover paint gaps or ceiling openings without extra wall repair.
As observed across this product line, there is a minor contradiction in the factory specifications:
