If an alarm is triggered and no one responds, trained agents can contact emergency services on behalf of the homeowner. This service is separate from Ring’s existing home security subscriptions.
  • Advanced Detection Technology:
    • The alarms use Kidde’s advanced sensing technology, which claims to detect smoke 25% faster than traditional alarms and with three times the precision, reducing false alarms from cooking or other non-emergency situations.
  • Availability and Pricing:
    • The Kidde Smart Smoke Alarm with Ring is priced at $54.97, and the combination Smoke + CO Alarm at $74.97.
    • They were set to launch exclusively at The Home Depot in April 2025, with broader retail availability expected later in the year.

  • Alerts Beyond the Alarm: In addition to sounding an alarm, these devices will notify you via the Ring app about low battery conditions, helping to avoid the nuisance of chirping alarms. However, you must manually silence an active alarm; it cannot be done through the app.
  • Compatibility: At launch, these alarms are only compatible with the Ring app and do not support integration with other smart home ecosystems like Amazon Alexa or Google Home.
  • Emergency Contacts: The monitoring service allows for the designation of emergency contacts who will be notified in case of an alarm, adding an extra layer of safety and communication.
  • Installation: Since these are hardwired alarms, installation might require some electrical work unless you’re replacing existing hardwired smoke detectors.

Homeowners interested in this product should consider:

  • Safety and Peace of Mind: The integration with Ring’s ecosystem could offer additional peace of mind, especially for those who use Ring for other security purposes.
  • Cost vs. Benefit: Evaluate if the additional features and professional monitoring justify the cost over traditional or other smart smoke detectors.
  • Ease of Use: The combination of app notifications and professional monitoring can make managing and responding to potential emergencies more straightforward
