If there’s one sound no one wants to hear in the dead of night, it’s the smoke alarm sounding off. That high-pitched scream is so annoying when you’re only frying bacon, and the popping grease begins to smoke. Annoyance turns into bone-chilling fright, though, when you don’t know where the fire is, if it’s blocking the exits, the rate at which it’s spreading, and how long you have to get the kids and the dog out of the house.
The Bells And Whistles Save Lives
Lots of people think they can’t afford those ritzy smoke alarms that have carbon monoxide sensors on them as well. Plus you see that they have Alexa speaking for them? It even detects bacon smoking on the stove’s eye and stops itself from sounding off? Does it have a ten-year battery built in? There’s dual sensor wired smoke alarms as well? Yep, that’s going to cost a pretty penny. Would you believe one alarm costs less than $40 at both Walmart and Amazon?
So Why Is Detecting Carbon Monoxide So Important?
Carbon monoxide is produced by machines and appliances burning fuel of any type. It can’t be seen, smelled, tasted, or felt. It gets inside the body and replaces the oxygen in the bloodstream. The brain, heart, lungs, and other organs are starved for oxygen, killing the person in a short time. Knowing that, wouldn’t it be a good idea to use dual sensor wired smoke alarms that sense and sound off about carbon monoxide?
First Alert, Inc. manufactures smoke alarms developed with the latest technology. When you buy one, you won’t wonder where the fire is, because Alexa will tell you. She’ll tell you the exits aren’t blocked, and you’ll have time to get the family and the dog to safety.
