Fires are somewhat common, and it’s critical to have fully functioning and well-maintained fire alarms throughout your residence to detect the first signs of a fire. It is recommended that smoke alarms are placed on every level of the home and inside and outside every sleeping area.
Smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors are typically among some of the most ignored devices in a home. However, they are your family and your home’s best investment when it comes to saving lives and property.
Carbon monoxide can cause illness or even death. In fact, of all the poisoning deaths in the US, carbon monoxide is among the most common.
If left undetected, this colorless, odorless gas can kill an entire household in hours or even minutes. With properly functioning carbon monoxide detectors in the home, these incidents are 100% preventable.
CO alarms should be installed in a central location outside each sleeping area and on each level of your home.
Thompson Safety’s residential fire safety experts are standing by to help homeowners keep their lifesaving devices functioning properly at all times. Whether you need alarms inspected, repaired, replaced, or are just nervous to get on a ladder and switch out your batteries, we can help!
Home safety alarms, including smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors, monitor your home twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. They are designed to provide accurate readings throughout their lifespan.
We test and inspect carbon monoxide detectors, basic interconnected 120v residential smoke detectors with battery backup, and even smart detectors so you can rest assured that your units are always working properly. We can also clean the units and switch out batteries as needed.
Even the highest quality smoke detectors experience issues at times or stop working altogether and need to be replaced. Also, NFPA 72 requires that homeowners switch out their smoke alarms every ten years or earlier. It is also recommended by many manufacturers that CO alarms are replaced every ten years or earlier.
We can replace these devices with new, top-quality models when they have reached the end of their lifespans.
