Your safety is our top priority. At Air Tech of Humble, we install and maintain smoke and carbon monoxide detectors that serve as your home’s early warning system. These devices offer critical protection against fire and gas exposure, giving you time to act and stay safe.
Why Smoke & CO Detectors Are So Important
Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are vital for identifying silent threats before they turn dangerous. Modern systems are smarter, more accurate, and can be connected to provide instant alerts.
- Smoke Detectors: These sensors trigger an alert at the earliest signs of smoke, helping you respond to a fire before it spreads.
- Carbon Monoxide Detectors: CO gas is odorless and invisible, often caused by malfunctioning gas appliances. Detectors can identify CO buildup early and prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.
Types of Detectors We Install
We offer a wide range of detector types to match your safety needs and home layout:
- Ionization Smoke Alarms: Excellent at detecting fast-flame fires.
- Photoelectric Smoke Alarms: Designed for slow-burning, smoky fires.
- Dual-Technology Units: Combine both detection methods for broader protection.
- Combination Smoke/CO Detectors: Space-saving devices that handle both threats in one unit.
- Smart Detectors: Connected alarms that send real-time notifications to your phone and track battery status remotely.
Recommended Placement for Optimal Coverage
Detector placement is just as important as the technology itself:
- Smoke Detectors: Install inside every bedroom, outside sleeping areas, and on each level of the home. Mount high on walls or ceilings, avoiding ventilation ducts.
- CO Detectors: Should be placed near bedrooms and fuel-burning appliances. Eye-level mounting ensures optimal CO detection performance.
Keep Your Devices Functional with Regular Maintenance
Like any safety system, detectors need periodic checks to stay effective:
- Monthly Testing: Push the test button to ensure the unit is working properly.
- Battery Checks: Replace batteries once a year, or whenever your detector signals a low charge.
- Replacement Cycle: Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years; CO detectors every 5–7 years depending on the manufacturer.
