6 Reasons Why Monitored Fire Protection Is So Important:

Ionization and Photoelectric Smoke Detectors
There are two kinds of smoke detectors: Ionization and Photoelectric. Electricians install the ionization smoke detectors that tend to respond faster to the smoke produced by flaming fires. These detectors need to have their batteries replaced once a year and “tested” at least twice a year. They also “chirp” when the batteries are low.
We also install photoelectric smoke detectors which tend to respond faster to the smoke produced by smoldering fires, the most common of household fires. Our installed smoke detectors can be monitored by the central monitoring station.
Additionally, our hardwired smoke detectors do not beep because their battery backup is in the security panel. They are also less prone to false alarms, or “nuisance” alarms.
It is best to have both types of smoke detectors installed in your home, but remember, only monitored fire detectors call for help.
