This is Tyler Dillon along with Ron Larson in regard to Fire Detection for your home. Between us we have 39 years of experience in protecting families not only in regard to security aspects and items in regard to your home, but also Fire Detection. One Ohio State University Fact Sheet Noted: Home fires are a serious threat to your family's safety. Every year in the United States, approximately 5,000 people are killed and more than 40,000 are injured by residential fires.

In addition, more than $8 billion worth of property damage is done by home fires. Many fire victims die of inhalation of smoke and toxic gases, not because of burns. Most deaths and injuries occur in fires that happen at night while the victims are asleep. Sleepers must be warned before it is too late. When properly installed and maintained, the home smoke detector is one of the best and least expensive ways to provide early warning when a fire begins. Before the concentration of smoke reaches a dangerous level, or before the fire becomes too intense, the alarm will sound. Smoke detectors save lives, prevent injuries and minimize property damage. The risk of dying from fire is twice as high in homes that do not have functioning detectors.

Within fire safety aspects, we have heat detectors which detect a rapidly rising heat or heat at a set point in a room, smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. Carbon monoxide related topics will be very specifically covered under the link Carbon Monoxide to help clear up any mis-conceptions in regard to their need, use or application.

Heat detectors are recommended for kitchens, HVAC rooms, bathrooms, utility rooms, attics and hallways adjacent to bathrooms (to keep the steam wave from shower from setting off the hallway smoke detector). Smoke detectors are applied in the other rooms that are not covered by heat detection. What you are fighting is time in a house fire. You are fighting the time that it took from ignition of the fire, to the discovery of the fire, to the time that it took for 911 to be notified, along with the response time of the fire department to your home.

Children run and hide during fires. I met with a family a that had four boys, aged 2-5 years old in which we were looking at the dynamics of a nighttime fire situation in a home with three stories up and a large basement. In a child rescue situation, its not just how fast can the fire department get to your home, it is how fast they can utilize a Thermal Camera to assist in locating any loved ones in the house. Thermal cameras allow the firefighters to see through walls literally in regard to the fire and its progression along with finding your child or loved on in pitch black ultra dense smoke situations.
