State fire marshal warning on smoke detectors

Illinois’ fire marshal wants residents to check their smoke detectors.

Illinois’ fire marshal wants residents to check their smoke detectors. Fire Marshal David Foreman wants people to check to see if they are using a smoke detector that was recalled Thursday because it may not sound in a fire. The Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall of 94,000 smoke detectors. They are the Kidde Model PI2000 Dual Sensor Smoke Alarms. The smoke detectors were sold between August 2008 through May 2009. They cost between $30 and $40. Foreman said Illinoisans need to inspect their smoke detectors to see if they have one of those that was recalled. The Consumer Product Safety Commission says people with recalled smoke detectors should contact Kidde to get a replacement. ______ Copyright 2009 Associated Press. All rights reserved.
