The WG4GSKT is the factory replacement mounting gasket for Kidde's Genesis WG4 series outdoor speakers, speaker-strobes, and strobes. It provides a weather-tight seal between the appliance and the mounting surface, maintaining the outdoor rating of the installation.
When to replace
Swap the gasket during routine inspection whenever the original shows cracking, compression set, or UV degradation. A compromised gasket lets moisture into the back box and can take an outdoor-rated appliance out of service. Keeping a few spares in the truck saves a return trip.
Key details

- Maintains weather rating: restores the factory seal for outdoor and wet-location installations
- Simple swap: remove the appliance, pull the old gasket, seat the new one, remount
- Low-cost insurance: keep spares on the truck to avoid a return trip when a gasket fails inspection

FAQs
What Genesis models does this gasket fit?
The WG4GSKT fits all Kidde Genesis WG4 series outdoor notification appliances, including outdoor speakers, speaker-strobes, and strobes.
When should I replace the mounting gasket?
Replace during routine inspection whenever the gasket shows cracking, compression set, or UV degradation. A compromised gasket allows moisture intrusion and can take an outdoor-rated appliance out of compliance.
Is this gasket required for outdoor installations?
Yes. The gasket provides the weather seal between the Genesis WG4 appliance and the mounting surface. Without it, the installation loses its outdoor/wet-location rating.
