Smoke Detector

Picture of a smoke detector to go with our Traditional PERS medical alert.The Supervised Photoelectric Smoke Detector is a UL listed photoelectric smoke alarm with a built-in transmitter designed for use with our Traditional PERS receiver. When smoke is detected, the alarm sounds a loud local alarm. Twenty seconds after the local alarm sounds, the built-in transmitter sends a digitally coded wireless signal to the Traditional PERS receiver. The Traditional PERS dials out and notifies our certified EMT operators that action is necessary.

Depending upon the situation and the instruction provided, we can notify the client and dispatch the fire department directly if no response or if the client instructs us to; we can also notify any emergency contacts depending upon the instructions provided to us during setup.

A loud siren goes off on the main medical alert unit and an 85 dBA sounder is triggered from the smoke detector to ensure the client is aware of the signal received  The wireless signal will be repeated every 20 seconds as long as smoke is still present.

We recommend at least one smoke detector and many of our clients have multiple detectors in the different rooms of their house.
