"My husband and I highly recommend Professional Power for any electrical needs. They did the electrical work on our house rebuilt from the Marshall Fire. The city inspector who gave us the go ahead to occupy our new home and who is an electrician himself said it was the BEST electrical work he had seen to date."

Benefits of Smoke Alarm Installation in Brighton
The NFPA also recommends hard-wired smoke detector installation in Brighton. Power is one reason for this. The power is more reliable. The battery should only be there as a backup. That said, the main reason is interconnectivity. In a hard-wired system, when one smoke detector activates, that signal will go out to the other smoke alarms too. They’ll then activate as well.
The NFPA also recommends semi-annual, five-year and 10-year inspections. The semi-annual inspection you can do yourself. Visually inspect the alarms and test them. Call a professional only if there’s a problem. You should schedule an electrician for the five-year and 10-year inspections. As needed, replace your smoke detectors. It’s also a good idea to replace all detectors at once even though some may be OK. Keeping them all on the same schedule will be more convenient and save you money over the long term.
A common question we get is whether you should opt for smoke detector installation in a kitchen. Although it’s common, the NFPA actually recommends against this. Kitchen smoke detectors are the most common cause of nuisance alarms. In addition, kitchen fires generally happen when people are awake.
Another consideration is smoke detectors for people who are hard of hearing or deaf. There are devices that provide different types of sounds and emit a strobing effect. It’s also possible to connect the system to a pillow or bed shaker to ensure that a sleeper wakes up.
Watch for signs you should replace your current smoke alarms:
- Sharp discoloration
- Unexplained chirping
- Failed smoke alarm test
- Units older than 10 years
- Batteries continually dying
