Wired Smoke Detector Installation, Repair & Maintenance
Wired Smoke Detector Maintenance
According to the National Fire Protection Agency, smoke detectors should be replaced about every five years to make sure that they have the reliability you need to protect your home and family. If you have older smoke detectors, they might not be hardwired, which means that they are powered by battery alone. Hardwired detectors are a must to ensure that your smoke detectors work as they need to. Our electricians are fully certified and highly trained to correctly install both smoke and carbon monoxide detectors where needed. We have the knowledge to ensure that you have the right detectors necessary to maintain a safe home environment. We also have a maintenance service to help keep your detectors (and you) on top of battery replacement and safety check appointments.
Carbon Monoxide Detectors
Carbon monoxide is an odorless and colorless toxic gas. That makes it completely undetectable. The most common type of poisoning in the United States is attributed to carbon monoxide leaks. If it goes undetected, it can lead to serious health concerns and, in some instances, death. The good news is carbon monoxide poisoning is completely preventable when you have a detection alert system to keep your home and its inhabitants safe. At Morrison Electric, we look out for our community by being the foremost experts in installing carbon monoxide detectors in your home or office.
