We recommend installing a smoke detector in every room you would have to pass through if you need to escape, such as a hallway, landing, or staircase. Smoke rises, so it is important to always mount the smoke detectors on the ceiling. This can easily be done with a mounting plate or a few screws. The Smartwares smoke detectors are wireless, making them easy to place anywhere in the house. Thanks to the safety pin, the smoke detector can only be mounted when a battery is inserted. Maintenance The performance of a smoke detector can be reduced by dust and dirt. It is therefore important to clean your smoke detector monthly with a slightly damp cloth and every six months with a vacuum cleaner. However, never use cleaning products and do not paint the smoke detectors. Testing It is important to test the smoke detector in between by briefly pressing and holding the test button.
