We all know that a smoke alarm is a device installed on ceilings that senses smoke and warns people of a potential fire. It’s no secret that smoke detectors save lives by making a loud enough beeping noise to wake even the deepest of sleepers, giving an early warning allowing people time to react and escape. Everyone should have working smoke alarms in their home and business.
Having well positioned smoke detectors also helps remind us to be mindful of our surroundings and take action to prevent any potential danger. A professionally installed smoke alarm system gives you the peace of mind that your family is protected, as well as offering additional features and benefits that can guard your property from fire damage. We also offer smoke detector maintenance servicing.
That means we provide regular inspections to ensure your alarms are in good working order at all times. Our team of qualified technicians have years of experience so you can be sure that your alarm system is getting the best possible care and attention.
We have dedicated team members that specialise in smoke alarm installations, repairs, and services to ensure that your home and business are protected.
