Smoke alarm company Kidde has announced a recall of one of its models.

INDIANA — A smoke alarm manufacturer is recalling 452,000 dual sensor smoke alarms due to a risk of consumers not being alerted to a fire in their home.

According to a press release from Kidde, the issue involves a yellow cap left on during the manufacturing process that can cover one of the two sensors and compromise the ability to detect smoke.

The smoke alarms were sold from September, 2016, through January, 2018, for between $20 and $40 at Walmart, Home Depot, Menards and other home and hardware stores, as well as on Amazon.com and other websites.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission reported consumers should remove the alarm and inspect it for the presence of a yellow cap.

Those consumers should not attempt to take apart the alarm or remove the cap, but should immediately contact Kidde to receive instructions and request a free replacement smoke alarm.

The company also advises against removing or discarding  the recalled alarm until a new one is received and installed. If no yellow cap is present, the smoke alarm can be re-installed and no further action is needed, according to Kidde.
