Smoke Detector Replacement, & Repair FAQs
How often should smoke and carbon monoxide detectors be replaced?
Smoke detectors should be replaced every 10 years, while carbon monoxide detectors generally need to be replaced every 5 to 7 years, depending on the manufacturer. We can check the date codes on your current units to see if it’s time for an upgrade.
How many smoke detectors do I need in my home?
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends installing smoke alarms inside every bedroom, outside each sleeping area, and on every level of the home. In Tucson, that typically means one in each bedroom, one in hallways near bedrooms, and one in common areas like the living room.
Where should carbon monoxide detectors be placed?
What’s the difference between hardwired and battery-powered detectors?
Can you install interconnected detectors that all sound at once?
Are smart detectors worth it?
Smart detectors can send alerts to your phone, integrate with security automation systems, and even notify emergency contacts if there’s a problem. They’re a great option for second homes, rentals, or families who have pets at home alone. Combined with a battery backup system for your internet connection, they create additional layers of protection for your property.
Is installation expensive?
Pricing depends on the number of detectors, whether you’re installing new wiring, and if you want basic or smart devices. We offer free quotes and clear, upfront pricing—no surprises.
