## Overview

The First Alert BRK PRC710 is a slim, battery-powered smoke and carbon monoxide alarm featuring a 10-year lithium battery, photoelectric and electrochemical sensors for reliable detection, and an 85 dB alarm. Designed for easy twist-lock installation without wiring, it blends discreetly into any home environment while providing UL-tested, decade-long protection backed by a trusted brand.

## Description

Featuring a low profile, contemporary design, the First Alert PRC710 Slim Photoelectric Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm with 10 Year Battery provides the same protection as a standard smoke alarm while taking up only a fraction of the space. This slim, battery operated smoke detector requires no hardwiring for installation, making it an ideal solution for those who want to enhance fire safety without hiring an electrician. It features a built in 10 year lithium ion battery that provides continuous power for up to a decade. Equipped with an ultra reliable photoelectric sensor, the smoke alarm detects smoke from slow burning, smoldering fires while keeping false alarms to a minimum. A patented smoke entry system further enhances the detector's reliability by providing a direct path to the smoke sensor. The unit also features an advanced electrochemical sensor that detects carbon monoxide leaks from multiple sources such as faulty fuel burning appliances and blocked chimneys. The simple twist lock mounting system installs easily onto a wall or ceiling, while the tamper resistant locks help prevent removal of the battery to keep the alarm secure. Half as thick as a standard alarm, the smoke detector has a sleek, slim design that blends in seamlessly with most decor. A loud 85 decibel alarm sounds when smoke is detected, and a convenient test/silence button lets you easily check alarm function and mute false alarms. TROUBLESHOOTING STEPS: Activating the battery. Mount alarm to mounting bracket to activate. Once unit is activated, it cannot be turned off. NOTE: After you activate the battery, the power indicator light may flash. (If the unit alarms, the light will blink rapidly, and the horn will repeatedly sound 3 beeps, pause, 3 beeps.) Once the Smoke Alarm is on the bracket, you can rotate the Alarm to adjust the alignment. Clean the Smoke/CO Alarm at least once a month; gently vacuum the outside of the Smoke/CO Alarm using your household vacuum’s soft brush attachment. A can of clean compressed air may also be used. Follow manufacturer instructions for use. Test the Smoke/CO Alarm. Never use water, cleaners or solvents since they may damage the unit. If the Smoke/CO Alarm becomes contaminated by excessive dirt, dust and/or grime, and cannot be cleaned to avoid unwanted alarms, replace the unit immediately. DO NOT LOCATE THIS SMOKE/CO ALARM: In garages, furnace rooms, crawl spaces and unfinished attics. Avoid extremely dusty, dirty or greasy areas. Where combustion particles are produced. Combustion particles form when something burns. Areas to avoid include poorly ventilated kitchens, garages, and furnace rooms. Keep units at least 20 feet (6 meters) from the sources of combustion particles (stove, furnace, water heater, space heater) if possible. In areas where a 20-foot (6 meter) distance is not possible – in modular, mobile, or smaller homes, for example – it is recommended the Smoke Alarm be placed as fa from these fuel-burning sources as possible. The placement recommendations are intended to keep these Alarms at a reasonable distance from a fuel-burning source, and thus reduce “unwanted” alarms. Unwanted alarms can occur if a Smoke Alarm is placed directly next to a fuel-burning source. Ventilate these areas as much as possible. Within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of any cooking appliance. In air streams near kitchens. Air currents can draw cooking smoke into the smoke sensor and cause unwanted alarms. In extremely humid areas. This Alarm should be at least 10 feet (3 meters) from a shower, sauna, humidifier, vaporizer, dishwasher, laundry room, utility room, or other source of high humidity. In direct sunlight. In turbulent air, like near ceiling fans or open windows. Blowing air may prevent CO or smoke from reaching the sensors. In areas where temperature is colder than 40˚ F (4.4˚ C) or hotter than 100˚F (37.8˚ C). These areas include non-airconditioned crawl spaces, unfinished attics, uninsulated or poorly insulated ceilings, porches, and garages. In insect infested areas. Insects can clog the openings to the sensing chamber. Less than 12 inches (305 mm) away from fluorescent lights. Electrical “noise” can interfere with the sensor. In “dead air” spaces. See “Avoiding Dead Air Spaces”.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it use the same ceiling mounts as previous first alert detectors?**
A: The ceiling mount is different, but the screws are in the same place.  Just loosen the screws, swith mounts, and tighten back up.

**Q: Do you ceiling mount this fore/co2 alarm? doesn't co2 settle to the ground first?**
A: This is a CO alarm, not a CO2 alarm. CO2 is what makes your soda fizzy and is in in chained cylinders at restaurants... CO is an odorless, tasteless, colorless gas. The ONLY way to detect it is by detector. It is generated by any gas-powered appliances like dryers, stoves, snowblowers, cars, etc, and by burning like fire places. CO is BARELY lighter than air (about .96 to air being 1 for vapor density), and will mix and collect like normal air does, with drafts and normal air movement. CO detectors can be mounted at just about any height, though many manufacturers (somewhat arbitrarily) picked 5ft or chest height as the ideal mounting height. Smoke and heat rise, so smoke/heat detectors are required to be mounted within 12" of the ceiling. Combination detectors are common, and need to be mounted within 12" of the ceiling for the smoke function to operate properly.

**Q: Does this device contain a hush feature to silence nuisance alarms?**
A: It didn't on the one(of 5) that I purchased and had to take down.

**Q: I have just removed 4 model no. 7020b because it was incompatible with my outback solar energy system. will these mount over the same opening?**
A: The actual base is 6 in in diameter and the holes for screws are 4 inches apart

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by H***S on January 12, 2026*

This is my second purchase. Works great and no battery wories for 10 years

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smoke alarm
*by S***A on January 23, 2026*

Easy to install

### ⭐ Complete garbage
*by B***B on November 2, 2025*

If I could give these no stars I would. I purchased 2 of these in Feb to replace some old wired smoke detectors. Install was easy. The trouble came in Sept when one of them started to malfunction and give an alarm all the time when there was no smoke or heavy fumes. Nothing. Also it was not a CO alarm but a smoke. At all hours of the day and night. I finally got so sick of it that I pulled it off the ceiling and wrapped it in a blanket as my poor dog was shaking violently every time it went off. Put it back up a week later. Same problem. So I tossed it. Now here we are in Nov and the other one I bough is doing the same thing. Going off for no reason. Even wrapped in a blanket it was still going off. So I put it out on the porch. With fresh air and everything. And it continued to go off sitting outside intermittently for 2 more days before it too went in the trash. We are of course outside the return window. So I spent $80 to not have any smoke detectors in the house and will have to shell out more money again to buy another brand. These werent old. Both had been up less then 9 months when they malfunctioned. Dont waste your money on these unless you like your pets being traumatized at 2am when the thing randomly goes off for no reason and wont stop.
