Increasing Fire Safety
Quality smoke detectors that are in good working order are essential for your family’s safety. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) reports that there is a 55% lower death rate in homes with smoke detectors present, compared with no smoke detectors or malfunctioning ones. Ensuring that your home is protected requires having quality smoke detectors installed in the right places.
Smoke detectors should be installed:
- On every level of the house
- In each bedroom
- In the hallway outside the bedrooms
You should make sure you have quality smoke detectors in Lowell installed in all the recommended places to optimize fire safety and protection. In addition to having them installed in the ideal locations, it is important to choose the right kind of smoke detectors for your home. There are a few main options for how smoke detectors are installed and powered.
Schedule Your Smoke Detector Installation
Smoke detector options include:
- Battery-powered – A battery-powered smoke detector is powered by batteries, which need to be changed every six months to ensure that the unit is in working condition. Newer technology includes lithium-ion 10-year batteries that don’t need to be changed.
- Hardwired – These smoke detectors are hardwired into your electrical system. You won’t have to worry about them not working because the batteries are dead. They can be interconnected, so when one is trigged they all go off.
- Hardwired with a battery backup – This type of smoke detector offers the most complete safety protection. The smoke detectors are hardwired but there is a battery backup. If the power goes out, the battery power takes over to ensure that you are protected.
Hardwired smoke detectors need to be wired to your electrical system. A qualified electrician should perform the installation to be sure the smoke detectors are properly installed and the work is completed according to all current building codes. Smoke detectors that are more than 10 years old have a 30% failure rate, so replace your smoke detectors every decade to ensure continued protection.
