How Long Does Installation Take?

The amount of time our electricians need to install your new smoke alarms varies depending on how many you require and whether they are wireless or hardwired. Generally, a standard installation will take between 5 – 10 minutes per wireless alarm and 10-20 minutes for a hardwired alarm. Although installation typically doesn’t take too long, it could vary based on the size and layout of your home. Be sure to ask us when you book your smoke alarm installation how long it should take for our team.   

Why Interconnected Smoke Alarms?

Smoke alarms play a critical role in detecting household fires, but if you have only standalone smoke alarms, you may not know about a fire until it is too late. With more than half of the fires starting in bedrooms, this helps prevent fires.  

interconnected smoke alarms are a lifesaver because as soon as one alarm detects smoke and goes off, all the alarms in your home will go off too. So even if you’re not close to where the fire has started, you’ll be alerted immediately.  

If a fire starts in your home, you usually have only two minutes to escape before it gets too dangerous.

How Do Wireless Smoke Alarms Work?

Our wireless photoelectric smoke alarms use RF transmissions to interconnect multiple alarms – in our models at Super Cheap Smoke Alarms, this can be up to 40 units.

Smoke detectors are optimally effective when they utilize a wireless connection since it’s very similar technology to Bluetooth pairings or connecting your cell phone to car audio systems. Most homes have a good range for their wireless smoke alarm network.

At Super Cheap Smoke Alarms, we provide both standard wireless smoke alarms and models with remote control capabilities.  

The importance of having a smoke alarm

The importance of having a smoke alarm cannot be understated. Smoke alarms give occupants early warning of fire and can potentially save lives and reduce property damage. Without them, fires can quickly become uncontrollable, resulting in significant risks to life and property.

Smoke detectors are designed to pick up on smoke particles in the air that are produced by a fire.

How to choose the right smoke alarm for your home

When choosing a smoke alarm for your home, there are a few important considerations to keep in mind. First, consider whether you need a hardwired or wireless model, as the installation process differs significantly between the two. If you’re wondering if a smoke detector or fire alarm is right for you, know that both will protect against fires. However, If you already have a hardwired system installed, it may be the better option for you.  

Types of smoke alarms

Types of smoke alarms vary depending on the model, but generally, they can be divided into three main categories: ionization, photoelectric and dual sensors. 

Ionization smoke alarms are designed to detect small particles emitted during combustion, such as those created by flaming fires. These particles travel quickly throughout a room and set off the alarm more rapidly.

How to maintain your smoke alarm

Maintaining your smoke alarms is essential to ensure they remain in working order and can do their job of keeping your family and property safe.

It’s important to conduct regular maintenance checks on each alarm to make sure the batteries are in good condition and that all the connections are secure.  

What to do if your smoke alarm goes off?

If your smoke alarm goes off, it is important to remain calm and take immediate action. You should evacuate the building immediately and call the fire department. Although the fire or smoke may appear to be insignificant, the situation could very rapidly worsen. Do not go back inside until it’s safe.

How to replace your smoke alarm battery?

Replacing your smoke alarm battery is essential to ensure that it can do its job of keeping you and your family safe. To replace the battery, you will need to first locate the smoke alarm and remove its cover. Once the cover is off, inside you will find two terminals that are connected to two wires.

How to test your smoke alarm?

Testing your smoke alarm is an essential part of ensuring that it can do its job of keeping you and your family safe. Smoke alarms should be tested at least once a month to make sure they are properly functioning and able to alert you in case of fire. 

The easiest way to test a smoke alarm is to press and hold the test button on the device for at least five seconds. This will cause the alarm to beep, indicating that it is working. Remember, this test does not identify all potential fire dangers, so you should also regularly inspect and clean the unit.
