When you reach out to our team for a smoke detector installation in Federal Way, WA, we will begin with a comprehensive assessment of your home’s layout and potential fire risk areas. We will strategically place detectors in key locations, including bedrooms, hallways, and common areas, to provide optimal coverage. Our technicians will then rigorously test each detector for manufacturer defects and complications. Before leaving your home, we will provide guidance on maintenance and regular testing to ensure your system remains reliable over time.
How Often Should Smoke Detectors Be Replaced?
Over time, the sensitivity of your smoke detector’s sensor diminishes, and this affects the device’s reliability. For this reason, smoke detectors should be replaced every 10 years, as recommended by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). If yours have reached the 10-year mark, schedule a smoke detector installation with our professionals in Federal Way, WA, right away. Other ways to know if you need new smoke alarms installed are if the devices have turned yellow, they chirp all the time, they don’t respond when you test them, or they go off for no reason.
