    Fireangel CO Alarms and Smoke alarm half price, these are top notch products highly recommended, images attached.

    Also included the fire blanket, €2 more that lidl/aldi but hardy worth the trip if you don't shop there anyway.

    The digital CO alarm one has a 7 year battery built in.

    The smoke alarm has a 10 year battery built in.

    Good find and worth the money, Tesco have sold them cheaper before though.

    Will check Tesco Jervis this evening!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,206 ✭✭✭✭amiable


    I picked up one of the carbon monoxide alarms last week in Tesco Claremorris for 18 euro:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 100 ✭✭cunstunt


    Picked up a couple in Jervis at lunchtime - still a good few of them and the carbon monoxide ones left.
    They're in aisle 6 and not in the hardware section where i was sent first!

    Also, there are some non-10 year fire angel smoke alarms beside them which are €8 and not reduced (for some reason),

    cheers,
    sw

    This is what the Fire Angel 10 year battery fire alarm look like up close.

    I bought a twin pack recently.

    I also got a fireblanket in Ikea and 2 fire blankets in Aldi the other day.

    Cheap and unbranded.

    Go for a well known and proven name/brand.

    Even if it works and is reliable electrochemical CO sensor has life varying from 18 months to 5 years typically even professional exhaust gas analysers are typically only 2 years so you can be sure this cheap yoke will be on the short end of that scale. So expect 18 months -2 year life and add in batteries - not a bargain.

    full price in Tesco now

    Woodies selling Kidde 7 year CO alarms for 20 euro at the moment.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,815 ✭✭✭imitation


    Got two Monoxide alarms in Tescos Wilton, just what I was looking for as I'm a bit parnoid about a wood burning stove I have.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 15,858 ✭✭✭✭paddy147


    Well,I managed to get the very last Fire Angel 2 carbon monoxide alarms today in Tesco for half price.7 year battery life.

    Bought 1 for the living area and multi fuel stove and bought the 2nd 1 for the kitchen/diner and the gas boiler/gas hob.

    So I think I got lucky today.:)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 15,858 ✭✭✭✭paddy147


    Pic,well worth the money IMO.

    These are allmost 40 euro each,in most other shops.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,927 ✭✭✭paddyp


    Just a note to people to make sure to install it at the correct height, carbon monoxide is heavier than air so the alarm need to be alot nearer the floor that you'd imagine.
    I see them all the time on shelves and mantlepieces you'd be unconscious before it went off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,853 ✭✭✭Glenbhoy


    For anyone who missed out on these last time I picked one up for €14 in Dunnes in Walkinstown today. There's 4 or 5 left. I don't know if this is in all Dunnes stores though.

    Check manufactures instructions for correct installation, Carbon Monoxide is slightly lighter than air.

    They still have them but they're back up to the regular price.

    Thanks Kroc.
    Might go to B&Q instead

    Is carbon monoxide only a threat when an appliance (faulty) is on? Or can a dodgy appliance emit CO even when off?

    If its faulty there's a risk of a leak.

    Get it fixed Asap

    Check out www.carbonmonoxide.ie

    Even open fires can cause carbon monoxide poisoning and possibly death.

    Cost should not be a factor. Have at least 2 working smoke alarms and 1 carbon monoxide detector in your home. Please.

    Thanks. Nothing is faulty, I was just wondering.

    Worth reading that link of the family in Sligo who recently died, the appliances dont have to be faulty, human error or sheer bad luck can cause CO poisoning

    Will be investing in these alarms for the family.

    amazon.co.uk are good for these and free delivery if the order is over £25

    Heartbreaking story. Yet it happened so simply. May they rest in peace.

    I think it should be mandatory to have a CO alarm - just like it is mandatory to put on a seat belt etc.

    Saw Carbon Monoxide Alarms in Woodies earlier for €29.99.

    Looks like they work out a few quid cheaper on Amazon.
    Also noticed these non battery types:

    Check that Carbon Monoxide alarm complies with EN50291 standard.
