The 1204HA also has an originating alarm feature in which the initial detector’s red LED flashes to determine where the fire started.

To update from older USI smoke detectors, the USI 1204HA model directly replaces the 1204A, 1208, 1209, 1213, and the SS-790 smoke alarm models.

When replacing USI smoke detectors manufactured before 2016, remove and entirely replace the old mounting bracket with the new unit’s provided bracket. The 1204HA mounting plate measures 5 5/8 inches.

Carbon Monoxide and Gas Detectors

USI MCN108

Use a carbon monoxide and natural gas detector to catch the buildup of dangerous gases before it’s too late. Excess carbon monoxide causes poisoning and death, and natural gas buildup can cause explosions.

The USI MCN108 detector hardwires to 120V with a 9V battery backup. It also features tamper resistance preventing alarm and battery removal.

Use the USI-MCN108 model to directly replace the USI-7390.

The carbon monoxide and natural gas detector’s end-of-service warning, 2 chirps approximately every 20 seconds, will signal about 7 years after starting up.
