## Overview

The Kidde KF20 is a mains-powered optical smoke alarm with a 9V battery backup, designed as a direct replacement for multiple older Kidde models. It features interlinking capability with compatible alarms, a low battery hush function, and complies with the latest 2022 Scottish fire safety legislation. CE and Kitemarked to BS EN 14604:2005, it offers reliable, user-friendly protection backed by a 6-year warranty.

## Description

The Kidde KF10 is a mains-powered smoke alarm with a 9V back-up battery with the capability of interlinking with other Firex KF series alarms via hardwire. The ionisation-based sensor in the KF10 has been discontinued by Kidde and the ideal alternative is the KF20. The KF20 uses all the same features of the KF10, however, it adopts the newer optical sensor technology using the same base plate and connector. This ensures the smooth transition from one alarm to the next without the need for an electrician. This alarm is also suitable for the updated 2022 Scottish legislation for fire alarms in homes.
CE marked and Kitemarked to BS EN 14604: 2005. Suitable for installations complying to BS 5839-6: 2019 Grade D2
LED indicator
Combined Test / Hush button
Low battery warning chirp – Silence for 8 hours for a peaceful night
Supplied with fixings and a coloured dust cover (ideal for use when decorating)
The Kidde KF20 is also the replacement for a number of older models, and can be electrically interlinked with them. However, the new model cannot be used on the old base plates for the following units as they use different style connector blocks so an electrician will be needed:
123i / 1239HI
1275H
KF1R
KF10R

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this fit the old 120-1123C**
A: Hi,
I cannot remember exactly which old model I had, but there is a new base / mounting plate supplied in the box and a new different connector. If your old one is not too old, the old base plate and connector may be compatible. Either way it is not a difficult job and everything is provided.

**Q: Would this be suitable for the Firex 120-1123c?**
A: I'm afraid I don't know the different model types. If your old one is mains powered, and possibly linked to a second alarm, it should be okay. A new mounting plate and connector is supplied with the new device, (in the Box).

**Q: Hi, i have the kidde firex model 4870 hardwired in my house and i need to replace them.  do these alarms have the same wiring connection as the 4870?**
A: You may need to change the connector that attaches to the mains power supply and connects to the alarm which is supplied in the box.

**Q: Is this suitable for mounting near a bathroom (approx 3m from shower, but mounted on landing ceiling) or do I need an ionisation alarm**
A: Yes this best for mounting near a bathroom, as this is an optical alarm, it will reduce the amount of nuisance alarms as opposed to an ionisation alarm.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good for the money it's a lifesaver...
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 22 January 2026*

It was great, a like for like swap with one I installed 6 years ago, the one I bought was the updated version and was a straight swap with the same wiring connections although I didn't need to swap the back plate I still did as the old one was yellowing and would off looked odd. It also comes with a Duracell battery so a good quality.
