How to Install or Remove Smoke & CO Detectors Using the Solo 200
Over time, dirt and debris can build up on a detector and decrease its sensitivity. Sometimes, this can lead to the need to replace a detector or removal for cleaning purposes. The Solo 200 is the perfect tool to make removal or installation of detectors quick & easy and save a headache for the tough to reach or high areas.
When using the Solo 200, always wear appropriate protective equipment when working above head height and ensure the area around you is clear to avoid injury.
