Smoke Alarms

Smoke alarms are an essential part of any home or business. They are self-contained devices that give out a warning via the alarm to occupants in the building once smoke is detected, usually a very loud beeping sound. By detecting fires in their early stages, smoke alarms ultimately save lives by giving occupants of the building precious time to escape.

Heat Alarms
