The Kidde Genesis WG4WF-SVMHC puts both high-output audible and visual notification on a single outdoor-rated device. Dual-voltage 25/70V speaker with field-selectable wattage and four candela settings means one SKU covers a range of NAC circuit designs - fewer part numbers to stock, fewer return trips to the supply house.
Built for the commercial fire installer
UL 1638 listed for outdoor installations and UL 1971 listed for indoor use. The Genesis outdoor housing handles temperature extremes from -31°F to 151°F and humidity up to 95% noncondensing, so it holds up in loading docks, parking structures, covered walkways, and other weather-exposed locations where code requires both audible and visual notification.
