Smoke Alarms For Deaf

Did you know there are specialised smoke alarms for the deaf and hard of hearing?

When you are asleep you lose your sense of smell. A smoke alarm is your electronic nose. It will alert you if there is smoke from a fire.

A small fire can grow to involve an entire room in just two to three minutes.

Only a working smoke alarm will provide you with early warning and time to escape.

But what if you can’t hear the smoke alarm when it activates?  A specialised smoke alarm system is designed to alert those who are deaf or hard or hearing
