A Smoke Detector is an important safety device that saves lives by sensing the presence of smoke even before it’s visible to the naked eye.
Commercial, industrial, and mass residential devices issue a signal to an alarm system, while household detectors, known as smoke alarms, generally issue a local audible and/or visual alarm from the detector itself. Most smoke detectors work either by optical detection (photoelectric) or by physical process (ionization), while others use both detection methods to increase sensitivity to smoke.
“For best results and highest safety factor, a typical household should have a minimum of one or more smoke detectors on each floor.”
Having these devices installed and monitored by a central station may qualify the user for a reduction in their insurance rate.
