A smoke detector is a device that can sense smoke; it is typically used as an indicator of fire. Commercial and residential security devices issue a signal to a fire alarm control panel as part of a fire alarm system while, household systems known as smoke alarms generally issue a local audible or visual alarm from the detector itself.

RV Fire Systems have a large range of smoke detectors for you to choose from because we want you to have the best available for your business, home or other properties.

Smoke detectors are typically housed in a disk-shaped plastic enclosure about 150 millimetres (6in) in diameter and 25 millimetres (1in) thick. The shape of smoke detectors can vary by manufacturer or even product line.

With RV Fire Systems, we like to make sure that we are extremely thorough in everything we do which is why we, not only like to fit your smoke detectors but we also like to help you before and after – giving you all of the information you need along the way.

Fire safety advisors will tell you that most smoke detectors work either by optical detection (photoelectric) or by physical process (ionization), while others use both detection methods to increase sensitivity to smoke.

Sensitive alarms can be used to detect smoking in areas where it is banned such as toilets and school locker rooms or store rooms. Smoke detectors in large commercial, industrial and residential buildings are usually powered by a central fire alarm system, which is powered by the building power with a battery backup.Fire alarm installers usually install these when the building is being built.

Some people may not know what is best when it comes to getting a smoke detector in an industrial building because it isn’t as obvious or as easy as getting one for a residential building.

RV Fire Systems can help you all the way.
