Question about which Safe-T-Alert CO alarm replaces the CCI 3400.0
Q: "Hello,I am trying to replace this item for a customer. They currently have a CCI Model No. 3400.0. Which of yours would replace this model?Thanks so much Tammy."
Answer: The replacement units for the CCI Controls 3400.094 carbon monoxide alarms for RV's are the Safe-T-Alert SURFACE MT 12V RV/CO Alarm BROWN, 65-541 or the Safe-T-Alert 65-541 SURFACE MT 12V RV CO Alarm WHITE.
These are both surface mount units.The update to 65 has to do with the 5 year warranty from date of sale. All units should be replace every 5 years.
The good news: Safe-Alert typically has a summer rebate program ranging from $10 to $20, a true incentive to replace aging units. In 2013 this rebate ends in September.
