[QUOTE="Allen, post: 185497, member: 389"] If you have a newer home and they are hard-wired in, you should be good to go so long as they are less than 10 years old. If you have an older home and are using older tech, battery operated smoke alarms, check their age. Smoke alarms should be replaced about every ten years. My home has battery operated alarms. A few years ago I had a slight incident. Filled my house with smoke and I didn't know it as I was in the master bath and couldn't hear the kitchen alarm going off. Long story ----> short, my alarms were not hard-wired, nor connected. I fixed that by purchasing some smoke alarms that are wirelessly connected. A bigger house with old individual alarms will allow a fire to get way out of control before a person at the other end of the house gets the word. First Alert and Kidde both make quality alarms. You can also get voice alarms that are great for kid rooms. You can record YOUR voice and commands to get up and __________. This is a great idea, my kids easily sleep through their alarm clocks (as did I when I was young), so voice commands are worthwhile when it's a voice they recognize. [/QUOTE]
