Designed for home use, the Kidde KN-COPP-3 Nighthawk Carbon Monoxide Alarm us an A/C powered, UL-listed, plug-in device to protect homes from the silent killer.

Therefore, you can continuously use it even when there’s power outages.

While it does let you plug it into just about any power outlet, it can be very tempting to plug the device near the floor. However, don’t do this as positioning the device at eye level will be the easiest way to get the readouts on the unit’s LCD display. Furthermore, placing the alarm at eye level will enable you to get the most accurate carbon monoxide levels within the area.

The Kidde KN-COPP-3 Nighthawk may have been around the market for quite some time, but it is still one of the top choices for many to protect their homes from the dangers of carbon monoxide. It has proven itself to be one of the most reliable CO alarms to-date.
