Smoke Alarm Installation

Did you know you lose your sense of smell while you sleep, so the chances of you being awoken by a home fire are very slim.

Ionisation or photoelectric smoke alarms In most modern homes today you will see either the ionisation or photoelectric smoke alarm fitted. The ionisation smoke alarm is great for detecting flaming fires and works on the principal of using a small amount of radioactive material to ionise the air in a chamber were current flows, once smoke enters the chamber the air will decrease resulting in a reduction of current flow which will sound the alarm. Smoke alarm installers are now moving away from the ionisation type alarm due to their operation of detecting only flaming fires and the length of time it takes for an alarm to sound in the event of a smouldering fire.

Photoelectric smoke alarm

The photoelectric smoke alarm is by far becoming the more popular of the smoke alarm type and its effectiveness in sensing smouldering fires has put it top of the selling list. The smoke alarm is designed with a chamber and inside the chamber it has a light source, when smoke enters the chamber the light disperses sounding the alarm. Most homes contain furniture made from synthetic material and the photoelectric smoke alarm is ideal in a home containing this type of furniture as it will respond quicker to the smouldering fires caused by the material on the furniture.

We use the Brooks photoelectric smoke alarm when doing smoke alarm installation. This smoke alarm also comes installed with a 10 year rechargeable lithium battery, so no need to be changing the battery annually. It can also last up to 3 months alone without mains power connected. This alarm is ideal for detecting smouldering fires.
