Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a battery-powered smoke alarm over a hardwired one?

Battery-powered smoke alarms like the Flamerex SMI100 do not rely on your home’s main electrical grid, meaning they remain 100% operational during power outages. They are also much easier and faster to install because they require no expensive electrical wiring.

Where is the best place to install a smoke detector in a house?

Smoke alarms should be installed in the center of ceilings on every level of your home, inside every bedroom, and in hallway corridors outside sleeping areas. Avoid placing them too close to kitchens or bathrooms to prevent false alarms from cooking smoke or shower steam.

How often should smoke alarm batteries be replaced?

It is recommended to replace standard smoke alarm batteries at least once per year or immediately when the unit emits a low-battery chirp sound. Monthly button testing ensures the unit is functioning properly.
