Hardwired smoke detector installation in Garfield
We wire alarms on a common circuit with an interconnect so they sound together, each with battery backup. Alarms go in every bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level, with carbon monoxide protection near bedrooms and fuel-burning appliances. Where new cable is impractical, wireless-interconnect models do the same job.
