The number of residential fires increase in the weeks leading up to Christmas. Candles, extra lights, extra cooking, and extra current draw are some of the factors that lead to this annual increase.
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) estimates that you have about two minutes from the time smoke is seen or smelled until you are incapacitated by that smoke and unable to evacuate your home.  NFPA 72 A.29.2
Heat detectors and residential sprinkler systems may be ineffective in saving your life, as smoke is the number one killer during a fire….not heat.
NFPA also rates properly maintained smoke detector systems as having a higher reliability than smoke alarms (like those purchased at your favorite box store). Smoke detectors are 95% reliable versus smoke alarms at 88% reliable.    – NFPA 72 A.29.4.3
Guard Tronic can provide a smoke detector warning system to alert you when smoke is detected. Even in homes with those with hearing or vision impairments.  In addition to waking you, we can also alert the local fire department and initiate emergency responders to help fight the fire more quickly. Because of the efficiency and reliability of smoke detector systems, your insurance company may also give you a discount, helping pay for the installation and monitoring of the system. Residential smoke detection systems may also be integrated into a burglary or robbery system to save money.
