🚨 Smoke Alarm Installation
In a fire, every single second counts. Smoke alarms give the crucial early warning of a fire, which is a potential life-saver.
Ontario legislation stipulates the installation of a smoke detector on every level and outside every sleeping area. In practice, it goes beyond compliance to how reliable the system is and how well it is placed.
Tom Schmidt Electrical has a range of smoke detectors, including;
- Hardwired smoke alarms with battery backup
- Dual-sensor (ionization & photoelectric) detectors
- Interconnected alarm systems for multi-room coverage
- Smart alarms that sync with mobile notifications.
Our electricians install alarms in potential danger areas such as the kitchen, hall, and bedrooms.
We also have a schedule for safety inspection to check functionality, check battery strength and the life of the smoke alarm as they usually have to be replaced every 8 to 10 years.
Reminder: Based on how you’ve missed an important safety preference order on the detector. So as an example pour out a small smoke light cigarrette(what? if closer thanliners) hold the smoke close and see if the alarm sound. If it goes off the cigrette will need a small charge and smoke instead of ban an d if does not go off and it takes a while then it will need be both mantain and replace.
