The BLACK+DECKER Smoke + Heat Alarm (SM120) is designed for homeowners seeking advanced, low-maintenance fire detection. It offers rapid detection of both slow-smoldering and fast-flaming fires through its dual optical and heat sensors. While its sealed 10-year battery eliminates replacement hassles, users should be aware that it is a single-station device and not interconnected.

This alarm uses both an optical smoke sensor and a thermistor heat sensor. It is designed to detect both slow, smoldering fires (detected by smoke) and fast-flaming fires (detected by heat).
The alarm features a sealed 10-year lithium battery that provides continuous power for the lifespan of the unit.
No, the battery is sealed and designed to last for 10 years. After 10 years, the entire alarm unit needs to be replaced.
No, the SM120 is a single-station alarm and cannot be interconnected with other smoke or CO alarms.
You can clean the exterior of the alarm by gently vacuuming it with a soft brush attachment once a month. Avoid using detergents or solvents.
The alarm memory indicator is a feature that shows if the alarm has previously detected a fire event. This can help identify when an alarm was triggered.
The recommended lifespan for this alarm is 10 years from the date of purchase or manufacture, after which the entire unit should be replaced.
This usually indicates a low battery. Since the battery is sealed, the entire unit needs to be replaced. If the unit is less than 10 years old, ensure it is not in a location with extreme temperatures or humidity.
Ensure the alarm is properly attached to the mounting bracket. If it still does not sound, the unit may be faulty and needs replacement.
Ensure the alarm is not located too close to cooking appliances, bathrooms with showers, or heating vents. Clean the alarm with a vacuum cleaner brush. If false alarms persist, consider relocating the alarm if possible or replacing it.
This could be a nuisance alarm due to steam, dust, or insects. Use the silence button to temporarily quiet the alarm. Clean the unit and check its location. If the problem persists, replace the unit.
