FireX branded 10000 and 12000 series carbon monoxide alarms with item numbers: 10000, 12000, 12000C, 12000-6, 12200, 12220, 12400, 12400C manufactured between June 1, 2007 and February 1, 2008 have been recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission in cooperation with Maple Chase Co. A number of these items were sold by Menards.  The hazard listed: "The recalled alarms can sound a “double chirp”/fault alarm in the presence of CO, prior to going into full alarm. Upon hearing a double chirp, the Owner’s Manual instructions recommend a consumer take the alarm out of service, which could expose consumers to hazardous levels of CO and suffer injury or death."
