## Description

Product Description BRK Model CO250 is a single station carbon monoxide alarm specifically designed for residential and institutional applications including sleeping rooms of hospitals, hotels, motels, dormitories, and other multifamily dwellings as defined in standard NFPA 101. Model CO250 has been fully tested and complies with, UL2034, NFPA 720, and NFPA 101 and other agencies that model their codes after the above agencies. It meets building codes where battery operated carbon monoxide alarms with silence are required and with model building codes published by the ICC. BRK Model CO250 is a state of the art carbon monoxide alarm designed to provide early warning of the presence of carbon monoxide. It features an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor, an 85dB horn, a full function test switch and a red LED light that indicates DC power or alarm. The CO250B features a 9V alkaline battery and the CO250LB a 9V long life lithium battery. This alarm has two silence features. Low Battery Silence: Temporarily silence the low battery chirp for up to eight hours. Alarm Silence: Silence alarm for several minutes. It also features a tamper resistant locking pin that locks alarm cover to prevent removal of battery. Perfect for apartment, dormitory or hotel applications. The compact, low profile design complements any décor. Battery installation and removal can occur while the unit is mounted to the ceiling or wall via the hinged cover. When voltage drops to a pre-set warning level, the horn will “chirp” approximately once per minute to indicate a fresh battery is needed. To insure the battery is always replaced properly, the cover is designed to resist closing when the battery is missing. Designed for wall or ceiling mounting. Includes mounting anchors and screws.

Review: Reliable, Easy-to-Use Carbon Monoxide Alarm - Reliable, Easy-to-Use Carbon Monoxide Alarm This First Alert battery-operated carbon monoxide alarm is a straightforward, dependable device that provides peace of mind. Setup was simple—just pop in the included 9-volt battery, mount it on the wall, and it’s ready to go. I like that it’s lightweight and doesn’t require any hardwiring, so it’s perfect for areas where I don’t want to run electrical connections, like a basement or garage. The two silence features are handy. One quiets nuisance alarms (for example, if it gets triggered by something minor), and the other lets you silence the low-battery chirp long enough to replace the battery without the constant beeping. That’s a thoughtful touch and keeps it from being frustrating. It’s not a fancy smart device—no digital readout, no app connectivity—but that’s part of the appeal. Less complexity means less to go wrong. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do: detect dangerous carbon monoxide levels and alert you with a loud alarm. Something to keep in mind: because it’s battery-powered, you’ll need to replace the battery regularly, and like all CO detectors, the unit itself has a limited lifespan (about 5–7 years before replacement). Bottom line: A dependable, no-frills carbon monoxide alarm that’s easy to install and use, ideal for anyone who wants straightforward protection without extra bells and whistles.
Review: Ideal replacement - I ought this is a replacement for a detector that had gone bad. It came with two sided tape and screws, depending on how you wanted to mount it to the wall. Easy to install and was ready for use, after installing a 9 volt battery, which is long lasting.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this detect propane gas? Lookin to install in my travel trailer**
A: no, you will need a separate detector for that. LP gas is detected near the floor of a RV. Carbon Monoxide rises and is detected near the ceiling. My Travel Trailer had a carbon monoxide detector near the bed room on the wall near the ceiling, a LP detector in the kitchen near the floor and a smoke detector on the ceiling between the kitchen and living area.

**Q: This detector cannot be used if temperatures are below 40f or above 100f.  what detectors are available that can be used below 40f and above 100f?**
A: Thank you for your question. Our alarms are manufactured to be used in the home, in living areas. Most homes would be inconsistent with temperatures below 40 or higher than 100 degrees. If you're using this in a camper/trailer etc- you should keep it in your home when the camper/trailer is in storage not being used. Consistent extreme temps can affect the sensors, components & battery life.

**Q: is this detector certified for use in rv's ?**
A: I see RV's use unconditioned CO detectors that aren't temperature controlled. I wouldn't use it in an RV.

**Q: Can I use it as a portable co detector? Going on a trip from one hotel to another and never mounting it**
A: It is battery operated so I don't see why you can't take it with you

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10 year life in RV powered up half the year
*by S***T on May 23, 2026*

This was an exact replacement for our RV. Snapped right in where the old one was, no drilling screwing etc, easy peasy! I remove the battery in Oct every year when I winterize the RV and put it back in in May, so it is only powered up half the year and it lasted just over 10 years that way, Does that mean It would last only 5 years if it was powered up continuously? I don't know but last fall was the first time I forgot to remove the battery for the winter and the old one started chirping during the winter. replacing the battery did not help The instruction stated that the three chirp pattern meant it needed to be replace so I ordered this one and I expect it to last 10 years as well. Did leaving it powered up in sub-zero temperatures shorten its life? I dont know that either but I can't complain much for getting 10 years out of it I guess.
