Smoke Alarms

Smoke alarms are often your first line of defence in both home and office fire safety. Always alert, always watching for the first sign of fire, smoke alarms are effective and sophisticated items of fire safety equipment that you simply cannot afford to be without.

How Smoke Alarms Work

Smoke alarms work by literally 'seeing' the smoke particles raised by a fire. They are ideal for use in clean environments such as offices, and in the living areas and bedrooms of your home.

Heat alarms work, as you would expect, by detecting a rise in temperature. Since they react to heat, not airborne particles, they are ideal for use in steamy or smoky environments such as kitchens, and in dusty environments such as factory floors and domestic lofts.

All smoke alarms can either be battery-powered or hard wired into any 240v power supply. The Kidde 10 year smoke alarm has a battery that lasts the life of the alarm, so you can install and forget it, until it 'chirps' at you to replace it!

Carbon monoxide (CO) gas is a silent killer that can be created by faulty gas appliances. The premium carbon monoxide detector from Easy Fire Safety not only shows you the CO level on a digital display, it also has a peak level memory, useful for when you have been away from the home or workplace.
