Smoke Alarm Installation

Smoke detectors should be installed on every level of your home, including basements and one in each bedroom. Choose between a hard-wired or battery-powered smoke alarm. A battery-powered smoke detector uses batteries, while a hard-wired smoke detector is wired into your home's circuitry. Both types of alarms will sound when they detect smoke. One benefit of a hard-wired detector is that some have a battery backup, so even if your home loses power, the detector will still work.
