Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20170524-01D29-2147400264. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Kidde i12010S. Source model text: i12010SCO. Incident: at 6:00 am this morning the Combination Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm on the third floor went off. It went off three times within a half hour. I vacuumed the unit because I'd had the windows open earlier in the week and there was a lot of pollen in the air. Later in the day it went off again. At 4:00pm it went off again and I called my electrician, who made the installation two years ago. A short time later it went off again and continued beeping and alerting "fire" for over a half hour. My electrician showed up and he removed the outer twist of casing from the unit and pushed the hush button. He advised that I should inquire if there was a recall on this model. I did.
