Reviewer: Bob Murphy
The 9120B was a perfect match to six others in my home. Replacement was due to a spider embedding itself in the detector, causing unwanted alarm.

Reviewer: MJ
Chosen and installed 5 by our contractor according to City regulations in late 2010 when work was being completed on our house. Alarm went off in the early morning hours this morning 8/11. After calming our hearts realizing there was no smoke or fire, I concluded the power went off momentarily. Is this a problem with hard wired alarms, and can we expect to have the alarms sound each time the power goes off? Do the alarms need to be reset or do they reset themselves? I consulted the manual I found online, but it isnt clear. This is the reason for the 4 rating instead of 5. Thanks for any assistance.

Reviewer: Livit
Installation of the First Alert smoke and fire alarm, model 9120B, was easy so I rate it 5. Finding directions on battery placement in the swing out battery compartment was IMPOSSIBLE because there werent any directions, so this part gets a 0! I hope the customer service division reads these reviews and contacts me so that I can rest assured I installed the batteries properly.

Someone will contact you shortly.

These were replacement units I purchased. Installlation very easy and now I rest easy with the new units in place. Glad you now indicate the safe life of the new hardwired units to be 10 years. Should enable a replacement to be installed before an existing unit malfunctions as it did before the new one was put in. amh
