Although having a smoke alarm installed in your house is recommended, fires can occur at any moment. Even if you don’t smell burning wood or fried electronics from across the room, these gadgets will detect fires and alert those who need help the most. Our sense of smell is also lost while we sleep. All residential homes should have smoke detectors installed. The alarm is powered by the mains and includes a battery backup in the event of a power loss, making it safer than using batteries that can die fast. MCD Electrical Services assists homeowners with their issues so that they are prepared if they want assistance.
Our technicians also perform annual smoke detectors maintenance and inspections to ensure they are kept in optimum condition. This includes checking their batteries as well, so you can sleep soundly knowing that your family is protected by an alarm system.
Smoke detectors must be maintained regularly to operate effectively. All smoke detectors in a home should be examined at least once every ten years and upgraded more regularly depending on how often they are used. Because a single cigarette might spark a fire, it’s critical to understand how different types of alarms operate in these situations. We recommend cleaning it with a non-toxic cleaner regularly or replacing it as soon as the battery runs out. We also perform other things while we’re here, such as testing them regularly against government standards.
Whether it’s a recently remodelled house, a home with a fire, or a home with a carbon monoxide leak, smoke alarms are a must-have in any home. However, the power goes out, you’ll want them hardwired with backup batteries so that they can continue to operate even if the power goes out. Contact MCD Electrical if you’re ready to make fire safety a top concern in your house.
