Universal Security Instruments, Inc. today announced that two models of its revolutionary carbon monoxide plug-in alarms are now available for sale in the United States. These ultra-low profile, compact models feature direct outlet plug-in capability using a single sensor to detect the presence of both carbon monoxide and natural gas (methane).

Harvey Grossblatt, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are excited to introduce these new products to the U.S. retail market. We expect that Universal's new plug-in Carbon Monoxide alarms will be a significant growth driver for our Company next year. We believe that being able to offer a dual-sensing gas detector at a cost which is similar to the current market for single gas detectors creates a compelling value for the consumer".
