## Short answer

For a house with a gas furnace, a gas water heater or an attached garage and an outlet in the
bedroom hallway, the pick is the Kidde KN-COPP-3: its data sheet prints a UL 2034 listing, a
9V battery backup, a display reading 30 to 999 ppm, a Peak Level button, a replace-alarm
alert at 10 years and a 10-year limited warranty. Where there is no
outlet, the Kidde COB10 prints a sealed 10-year battery, the same UL 2034 line and a 10-year
warranty with the battery included. The runner-up plug-in is the First Alert CO605: UL 2034
printed, but a 7-year replacement interval and warranty. No unit here alarms sooner than
another: every maker sheet prints the same UL 2034 bands, 70 ppm in 60 to 240 minutes,
150 ppm in 10 to 50 minutes and 400 ppm in 4 to 15 minutes. Skip the smart First Alert SC5
unless you want Wi-Fi and interconnect: its pages print UL 217 but not UL 2034.

## Fact sheet

- **Answer:** With a hallway outlet, the pick is the Kidde KN-COPP-3: its data sheet prints UL 2034, a 9V backup, a 30 to 999 ppm display with Peak Level button, and a 10-year end-of-life alert and warranty. Without an outlet, the Kidde COB10 prints a sealed 10-year battery. Every sheet prints the same UL 2034 bands: 70 ppm in 60 to 240 minutes, 150 ppm in 10 to 50, 400 ppm in 4 to 15.
- **Comparison basis:** Manufacturer data sheets, manuals and product pages for the Kidde KN-COPP-3, COP, COB, COB10, COBD10, C3010, 30CUD10 and 30CUDR, First Alert's CO605, CO606, CO710, SMCO210 and SC5 pages, X-Sense's SC07 page and ETL manual, and Google's Nest Protect support pages, compared on power source, display and peak memory, interconnect, printed standard, end-of-life interval and warranty; placement from NFPA's and CPSC's public CO pages.
- **Assumptions:** The reader lives in the US and the home has at least one fuel-burning appliance, a fireplace or an attached garage; some state codes tie the requirement to those features and others do not; A plug-in alarm sits in an outlet the maker's manual allows; a sealed-battery alarm is replaced, not re-batteried, when it signals end of life; The standard printed on the maker's page is taken as printed; this page did not look up UL's certification directory
- **Method:** OwnerSpec compared manufacturer-published specifications read on 2026-10-03 and confirmed each listing in stock the same day; it did not expose any alarm to carbon monoxide, measured no alarm time, prints no health outcome, and reports only the figures the cited document states.
- **Primary source:** [Kidde, KN-COPP-3 data sheet](https://www.shareddocs.com/hvac/docs/2001/Public/01/Data_Sheet_Kidde_KN-COPP-3_ENG.pdf) (manufacturer or vendor document)
- **Facts verified:** 2026-10-03
- **Last updated:** 2026-10-03
- **Canonical URL (cite this):** https://ownerspec.com/air/reviews/best-carbon-monoxide-detector/

If every appliance in the house is electric and there is no fireplace or attached garage, some state codes do not require a CO alarm at all (Iowa Code 2019 section 100.18 is one): check yours first, because the rest of this page assumes you need one.

## How was this shortlist built?

Every figure here is a manufacturer-published specification read on 2026-10-03 from the
document named beside it; nothing was exposed to carbon monoxide or timed by this site, and
every listing was confirmed in stock the same day. Units were compared on power source,
display and peak memory, interconnect, standard printed, end-of-life interval and warranty. A
standard number appears only where the maker prints it.

UL 2034 is the standard CPSC names for single and multiple station carbon monoxide alarms;
CPSC's fact sheet says to install an alarm that meets its current edition.

Three named candidates are absent on purpose. First Alert's pages for the CO710 and SMCO210
say the products are no longer available for sale, and no Google Nest Protect was picked:
Google's support page sets its 10-year expiry and names the First Alert smart alarm as its
replacement.

## How do the CO-only alarms compare on paper?

| Model | Power | Display | Interconnect | Standard printed | End of life | Warranty |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kidde KN-COPP-3 | Plug-in, 9V backup | 30 to 999 ppm, Peak Level button | No | Listed to UL 2034 | Alert at 10 years | 10 years |
| Kidde COP | Plug-in, 2 AA backup | None | N/A | UL 2034, NFPA 72, NFPA 101 | 10 years after powered | 10 years, batteries excluded |
| First Alert CO605 | Plug-in, 9V backup | None | Not printed | Conforms to UL 2034 | Replace 7 years after installation | 7 years |
| Kidde COB10 | Sealed 10-year battery | None, alarm memory LED | N/A | UL 2034, NFPA 72, NFPA 101 | 10 years after powered | 10 years, battery included |
| Kidde COBD10 | Sealed 10-year battery | Backlit digital display | N/A | UL 2034 | 10 years after powered | 10 years |
| Kidde COB | 2 AA batteries | None | N/A | UL 2034 | 10 years | 10 years, batteries excluded |

## How do the combination smoke and CO alarms compare on paper?

| Model | Power | Smoke sensor | Interconnect | Standard printed | End of life | Warranty |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kidde 30CUD10 | Sealed 10-year battery | Photoelectric | N/A | UL 217 and UL 2034 | 10 years after powered | 10 years, battery included |
| Kidde 30CUDR | 2 AA batteries | Photoelectric | N/A | UL 217 and UL 2034 | 10 years | 10 years, batteries excluded |
| X-Sense SC07 | Sealed 10-year lithium battery | Photoelectric | Standalone (SC07-W is the wireless sibling) | Page: ETL certified, UL 217; manual: UL 217 and UL 2034 | About 10 years | Not found |
| First Alert SC5 Battery | 6 replaceable CR123A | Not printed | Wireless, plus Wi-Fi | UL 217 10th Edition | Not read | 10 years |
| First Alert SC5 Hardwire | Hardwired, 3V lithium backup | Not printed | Hardwired, plus Wi-Fi | UL 217 10th Edition | Not read | 10 years |

## Where do CO alarms go, and how many?

NFPA's public CO page says to install CO alarms in a central location outside each sleeping
area and on every level of the home, plus wherever local law requires, to interconnect them
so that when one sounds they all sound, and to follow the maker's instructions for placement
and mounting height.

CPSC words it differently: each level and outside sleeping areas, but not in attics or
basements unless they include a sleeping area. Where the two differ, the maker manual decides.
Kidde's C3010 user guide puts a single alarm near the bedrooms, not in the basement or furnace
room, because CO may not reach an alarm on another level.

Every Kidde CO alarm here prints interconnect N/A or No; the First Alert SC5 is the only unit whose
maker prints wireless or hardwired interconnect. A gas water heater that keeps [dropping its pilot](/plumbing/guides/water-heater-pilot-light-wont-stay-lit-thermocouple/)
is one reason a basement alarm earns its place.

## Kidde KN-COPP-3: buy it or skip it?

Buy it if you want to see a number. Kidde's data sheet prints a display from 30 to 999 ppm
updated every 15 seconds and a Peak Level button that recalls the highest reading since the
last reset, down to 11 ppm, plus the UL 2034 listing, a 9V backup, 85 dB and a 10-year
limited warranty.

The flaw is that the display does not make it more sensitive: Kidde's C3010 sheet says its
sensor will not alarm below 30 ppm, and the UL 2034 bands match the cheapest unit here. The
sheet prints interconnect as No.

Skip it if no outlet sits in the hallway outside the bedrooms: the Kidde COBD10 below gives a
readout without one.

## First Alert CO605 and Kidde COP: buy them or skip them?

Buy the First Alert CO605 if the lowest outlay
matters. The First Alert store page prints conforms to UL 2034, 85 dB and an end-of-life
timer, and the manual says to replace the alarm 7 years after installation; the warranty is
7 years from purchase.

The flaw is the 7 years against Kidde's 10. First Alert's own site now lists the same UPC as
model CO606, so the Amazon title and the maker's current name differ.

Buy the Kidde COP if you would rather keep AA
cells than a 9V: Kidde's sheet prints 2 AA backups, a 10-year end-of-life, a 10-year warranty
with batteries excluded, and no display.

Skip both if the only outlet is behind furniture or beside a window or door: Kidde's placement
page says to avoid dead air spaces and spots next to windows and doors.

## Kidde COB10, COBD10 and COB: buy them or skip them?

Buy the Kidde COB10 for a hallway with no
outlet. Kidde's data sheet prints a 10-year sealed battery, an end-of-life notice 10 years after
it is powered, 85 dB at 10 ft and a 10-year warranty that includes the battery.

Buy the Kidde COBD10 for the readout on a
sealed battery: its sheet prints the same lines plus a backlit display. The flaw: peak level
memory is not printed on the COBD10 sheet, so this page does not claim it.

Buy the Kidde COB for a second level where the
cheapest UL 2034 unit will do: 2 AA batteries, 10-year end-of-life, 10-year warranty with the
batteries excluded. CPSC recommends replacing alarm batteries annually, so the saving over the
COB10 goes back into AA cells.

Skip all three if you want them to talk to each other: every sheet prints interconnect N/A or No.

## Kidde 30CUD10 and X-Sense SC07: buy them or skip them?

Buy the Kidde 30CUD10 if one ceiling unit must
cover smoke and CO with both standards in print. Kidde's data sheet prints a photoelectric
smoke sensor, UL 217 and UL 2034, a 10-year sealed battery and a 10-year warranty with the
battery included. The 30CUDR is the same
alarm on 2 AA cells.

Buy the X-Sense SC07 for a display on a
combination alarm for less. X-Sense's page prints ETL certified, meets UL 217, a 10-year
sealed lithium battery, a product life of about 10 years and the same three CO alarm bands.

The flaw is the paperwork: UL 2034 appears in the SC07's ETL user manual but not on the
product page, and no warranty length was found on X-Sense's site. The SC07 is standalone; the
SC07-W is the wireless-interconnect sibling, a different product.

Skip both if the house has alarm wiring: a battery unit cannot join a hardwired interconnect.

## First Alert SC5 and Google Nest Protect: buy them or skip them?

Buy the First Alert SC5 Battery if you want a
phone alert and alarms that sound together. First Alert's page prints wireless interconnect,
Wi-Fi, voice alerts, six replaceable CR123A batteries, UL 217 10th Edition and a 10-year
limited warranty; First Alert and Google both name it as the Nest Protect replacement.

Buy the First Alert SC5 Hardwire where alarm
wiring exists: its page prints hardwired interconnect, a 3V lithium backup and the same UL 217
and warranty lines.

The flaw is the standard line: neither SC5 page prints UL 2034, only UL 217. Google's support
page says the 2nd gen Nest Protect must be replaced after 10 years from its date of
manufacture, and that the First Alert alarm can relay a smoke or CO event to it. Skip the SC5
if you only need CO cover in a hallway: a Kidde COB10 does that without Wi-Fi.

**Count outlets and levels before you buy**

Do not order until you have two numbers: how many levels the house has, and how many spots
outside each sleeping area have an outlet. Each outlet position takes a
KN-COPP-3 or CO605, each bare position a COB10, and a house with alarm wiring takes the SC5
Hardwire. Write the install date on every unit: the end-of-life beep arrives in year 7 or 10.

## Who should skip a CO alarm?

Fewer people than the exemptions suggest. Iowa Code 2019 section 100.18, as printed, requires
CO alarms in dwellings with a fuel-fired heater or appliance, a fireplace or an attached
garage, so an all-electric Iowa home without a garage falls outside it. Other states and
towns word their rules differently, and NFPA's page adds "other locations where required by
applicable laws, codes or standards". Check the local rule before deciding you are exempt.

EPA's indoor air page lists the home sources: unvented kerosene and gas space heaters, leaking
chimneys and furnaces, back-drafting appliances, gas stoves, generators and exhaust from
attached garages. With none of those, the code question is the only one left.

## What goes wrong?

**The alarm beeps and gets its battery changed.** Kidde's FAQ says a quick beep every 30
seconds with a flashing red LED means end of life after 7 or 10 years, and a new battery will
not stop it. The [CO alarm beeping guide](/air/guides/carbon-monoxide-detector-beeping-what-it-means/)
sorts that signal from a low battery and a real alarm.

**The smoke side chirps and gets blamed on CO.** The [smoke detector chirping guide](/air/guides/smoke-detector-chirping-low-battery-end-of-life/)
covers the low-battery and end-of-life patterns on a combination unit.

**A natural gas leak is expected to set it off.** Kidde's user guide says CO alarms cannot
detect natural gas, propane or other combustible fuels.

## Frequently asked questions

### How many carbon monoxide alarms does a house need, and where do they go?

NFPA's public CO page says to install CO alarms in a central location outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home, interconnected where possible, and to follow the maker's instructions for placement and mounting height. CPSC words it as each level and outside sleeping areas, but not in attics or basements unless they include a sleeping area. The maker manual settles the mounting.

### Does a more expensive carbon monoxide detector alarm at a lower level?

Not on paper. Kidde's C3010 and COB10 data sheets and X-Sense's SC07 page print the same UL 2034 alarm bands: 70 ppm in 60 to 240 minutes, 150 ppm in 10 to 50 minutes and 400 ppm in 4 to 15 minutes, and Kidde says the sensor will not alarm below 30 ppm. Extra money buys a display, a sealed battery or a longer warranty, not a lower threshold.

### Do carbon monoxide alarms expire?

Yes. Kidde's replacement FAQ says a quick beep every 30 seconds with a flashing red LED means the unit has reached the end of its 7 or 10-year lifespan, and that replacing the batteries will not stop it. Kidde prints 10 years on every alarm here, and First Alert's CO605 manual says to replace the alarm 7 years after installation.

### Is a combination smoke and CO alarm as good as two separate alarms?

Check both standard numbers are printed. Kidde's 30CUD10 and 30CUDR data sheets print UL 217 for smoke and UL 2034 for CO; First Alert's SC5 pages print UL 217 10th Edition only. The counts also differ: NFPA's smoke alarm page puts a smoke alarm in every sleeping room, while its CO page puts a CO alarm outside each sleeping area and on every level.

### Should I still buy a Google Nest Protect?

Google's support page says the 2nd gen Nest Protect must be replaced after 10 years from its date of manufacture and names the First Alert Smart Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Alarm as a compatible replacement when used with the Google Home app. The two can relay a smoke or CO event to each other. This page picks the First Alert SC5 for that role and lists no Nest Protect.
