Are your home smoke detectors beeping and the red indicator lights flashing?
A smoke alarm is a battery operated or electrically connected device that senses the presence of visible or invisible particles produced by combustion and that is designed to sound an alarm within the room or house.
It’s essential to distinguish between smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. In some cities, smoke detectors must be installed in every room while carbon monoxide detectors are recommended to be install next to an attic access or hall way and should be within three feet (3') of an AC vent.
Sadly, each day someone loses a family member or experiences property loss because of malfunctioning smoke detector. A smoke detector can saves lives and protect properties every day.
Be safe and hire an affordable electrician at Nisat Electric, Inc. to install a hardwired smoke detector with battery backup, or to perform routine smoke detector maintenance.
Let Nisat Electric replace smoke detectors if you have an older alarm system.
One smoke detector in your home is not enough to protect your family from a fire. If you are in Allen, Plano, Frisco or Dallas, per the latest electric code, a smoke detector should be installed in each bedroom, outside each bedroom within ten feet (10') and interlocked with each other so that if one smoke detector sounds off then all will sound off.
Smoke detectors must be hardwired to the electrical panel with a stand-alone circuit breaker. Choosing a qualified, expert electrician to service your smoke detectors is highly recommended. You’ll benefit by having your smoke detectors hardwired by a trained electrician, such as Nafis at Nisat Electric, Inc. You’ll never have to worry about your smoke detectors not functioning because of faulty wiring. Plus, all of our smoke detectors are hardwired and supported by a battery backup. If the power goes out on your hardwired smoke detectors, the battery power will still continue to protect your home and family.
At Nisat Electric, we perform routine smoke detector maintenance. We will check your smoke detector batteries periodically, per manufacturer recommendations.
In the meantime, contact us to perform routine maintenance on your smoke detectors. A beeping sound from a smoke detector is a sign that the battery needs replacing. If that is not the case, we can troubleshoot the problem and determine what is needed.
