Smoke alarms are a crucial component of safety in a home, as these fire-protection devices will automatically detect and alert users of the presence of smoke and can save a life in the event of a fire.

When placed in the right location, the smoke alarm could additionally aid firefighters in quickly finding the fire in the home, allowing them to better focus their efforts.

audio sound

An audio sound is emitted when residential or commercial Smoke Alarms are activated, if no one is at the property to investigate the activated alarm, the potential fire continues. 

Make the home safer and stop up to 40% of home fires by installing a Smoke Alarm Smart Switch.

Smoke Alarm Smart Switch

The Smoke Alarm Smart Switch monitors the Smoke Alarm, Heat Detector, or Carbon Monoxide activity

The Smoke Alarm Smart Switch monitors the Smoke Alarm (Photo Electric or Iodisation), Heat Detector, or Carbon Monoxide activity, via a standard interconnect cable or wireless communication. 

After 60 seconds of alarming, the Smoke Alarm, Carbon Dioxide, or Heat Detector Alarm will trip the Smoke Alarm Smart Switch and turn off what accounts for 40% of house fires - electricity! (NSW Fire and Rescue).

The Smoke Alarm Smart Switch transforms the standard Smoke Alarms into a 24/7 monitoring system with minimal expense to the end-user as it utilizes existing Smoke Alarms.
