Smoke Detector Installation

Did you know that most fire deaths are not from the fire itself but from smoke inhalation? Heavy smoke can also block an escape route. A smoke detector is the best way to possibly save the lives of you and your family when a fire breaks out.

Smoke Detector Installation can help with

• Peace of mind regarding your home and family
• Reducing the risk of smoke inhalation
• Reducing the spread and severity of a home fire

Along with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors are also a necessity within your home. Carbon monoxide detectors are the only way to detect when a dangerous amount of carbon monoxide is present and eliminates the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. The professionals at AJ’s Electrical are able to install smoke and carbon monoxide combination detectors, to ensure your home is always protected against both of these safety concerns with the most efficiency.

Technological Advancements

Advances in technology are progressively making smoke detectors safer. For example, talking alarms allow you to program in the location of the fire and tell you its location. This allows you to choose the fastest and safest evacuation route. Wi-Fi-enabled units and smart device apps allow you to monitor your home from anywhere. You can check the detector’s status, get alarm notifications, and even shut off a false alarm.

If you have a separate suite within your home, our team is able to provide interconnected photoelectric smoke detectors. This will help alert you to the smoke situation sooner, and therefore reduce the risk of the fire spreading and causing irreparable damage.

Replacement is Required After 10 Years

Advances in smoke detector technology aren’t the only reason to upgrade. Smoke detectors have a working life of 10 years. After that, they need to be replaced. Not sure how old your smoke detectors are? If you’re in doubt, replace them.

At AJ’s Electrical, our smoke detectors have a 10 year battery backup. This will ensure your smoke detector is in good working condition for the duration of its life until replacement. It is critical to replace your smoke detector after its 10 year lifespan.

Recent building codes require a home has a smoke detector in each bedroom. The experts at AJ’s Electrical make it a priority to ensure your home is up to date on all recent codes and you’re made aware of additional recommendations. Regulations are put in place to protect you, your home, and your family.
