Smoke, Heat & Carbon Monoxide Alarms Witham

Welcome to TM Hughes & Son Electrical. We install Smoke, Heat and Carbon Monoxide alarms in Witham.

Fitting smoke, heat, and carbon monoxide alarms are one of the most reliable steps you can take to keep your household safe.

The Role of Smoke, Heat & Carbon Monoxide Alarms

Smoke alarms give you an early alert if there is a fire in the home. They sense and activate smoke particles, giving everyone time to evacuate safely and call the fire brigade.

Heat alarms are triggered by unexpected rises in temperature rather than smoke. This makes them a better option for areas like kitchens or utility rooms, where steam or light smoke can trigger false alarms.

Carbon monoxide alarms detect the gas known as the “silent killer,”. Carbon Monoxide alarms must be installed in all homes with a fuel-burning appliance such as a Boiler, Fire, gas cooker, wood-burning stove or open fire.

Wired Alarms – A Smarter Choice

All the above alarms are available battery-powered. They are cheap and easy to install. Wired alarms are a more reliable and safer option.

Unlike battery alarms, wired alarms draw power from your home’s electrical supply, so they are always on. There is no need to remember to replace batteries, which will run out eventually. Wired alarms are initially more expensive to install but are safer and require less maintenance (changing batteries). Wired alarms also include a backup battery in case the power is cut in the event of a fire.

Interlinked Alarm Systems for Complete Safety

Interlinking adds another dimension of safety to your alarm system. An interlinked system connects all the alarms in your house so they all sound together on every floor in the event of an emergency. This ensures no one misses an alert.

How Alarm Installation Affects Insurance & Compliance

If you have wired alarms installed by a professional, it may reduce your insurance premium or make getting insured easier. Landlords also have responsibilities to protect tenants. Smoke and CO alarms (when a fuel-burning appliance is present) are required by law.
