The Stratford Fire Department wants you to know about something that could save your life.
Kidde has recalled three types of smoke and combination smoke/carbon monoxide detectors.
It involves AC/DC powered residential alarms.
A power outage could put the devices into a “latched” mode that wouldn’t sound an alarm if smoke or CO was present.
The affected alarms were sold between January 2nd and May 13th of this year.
