The manufacturer states that this device is not compatible with AL wiring. However, it is compatible with copper-clad aluminum which is more typical for residential wiring than the plain aluminum used briefly before being condemned. Copper clad aluminum will look like copper so a visual inspection should tell. Even so, I would recommend a dab of anti-oxidizing compound on the contacts in those circumstances to be safe. If your branch circuit wiring is original AL (not clad) then you should replace it. If you are unsure of what you have now for branch circuit wiring, consider adding another circuit (copper) for this receptacle.
