Smoke Alarm Installation in Hereford by ElectricsFixed

For fire and gas poisoning prevention an early warning system can save live. Smoke, heat, and carbon monoxide detectors will ensure you and your family are notified quickly if an incident occurs. 

Smoke alarms

Smoke alarms are absolutely essential. Without any form of smoke detection, you and your family are at serious risk – a fire can very quickly spread so early notification is key. In the event of a fire, this live saving device will ensure you and your family can evacuate quickly and notify the fire service before it becomes a threat to life. 

Mains powered smoke alarms have been put into new build homes since 1992 – however even mains connected smoke alarms have a shelf life. It’s recommended that mains powered smoke alarms should be replaced every ten years. You should of course be testing your smoke alarm every week to ensure it’s still working effectively. 

ElectricsFixed have a professional team of reliable and friendly electricians who provide Hereford residents with up-to-date mains connected smoke alarms. Our valuable experience and expert installation mean you can continue to sleep restfully knowing you and your family will be quickly alerted if the unfortunate happens. 

Heat alarms

It’s recommended one heat alarm should be installed in your kitchen following current building regulations and BS 5839-6:2019. Heat alarms work by monitoring the heat level in your kitchen. If the temperature rises above an abnormal amount for an extended period of time; specifically, a temperature of 58 degrees Celsius for more than three minutes – the alarm will trigger. Heat alarms are a fantastic additional measure of early fire detection so proper installation is key. Heat alarms can also be installed in garages for additional detection. 

Carbon monoxide detector

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a toxic gas which can’t be smelt. CO can leak from poorly maintained boilers, gas fires and cookers. A well installed carbon monoxide detector will ensure your and your family are notified early before poisoning kicks in. Once again proper installation is vital to ensure effective operation. 

Hardwired benefits

A hardwired fire alarm system possesses many benefits. With our busy day-to-day lives, simplicity is key when it comes to maintenance. Hardwired alarm benefits also include:

  • Increased dependability.
  • Optimal safety.
  • Long lasting.

Battery powered alarms rely on the homeowner to routinely replace the battery or effective operation. Unfortunately, this is subject to human error making hardwired alarms more dependable. Hardwired alarms can also offer 10 years of protection very easily offering optimal safety where you most need it.
