  • At Mr. Electric of Chattanooga, we help you plan and install detectors in strategic locations, including your entire home, basement, attic, garage, and bedrooms. This ensures immediate alerts in case of fire or dangerous gas leaks, giving you peace of mind.

    Installing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors isn't just about having them—it's about placing them correctly. A detector hidden behind curtains or in an unsuitable location may fail to alert you in time. Our team at Mr. Electric of Chattanooga ensures the optimal placement of all your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, blending them seamlessly into your home's design while maximizing safety. We'll ensure that they don't stick out or become an eyesore.

  • The National Fire Protection Association recommends that homeowners replace their smoke detectors every 10 years, if not more often. When upgrading the smoke detectors in your home, you first need to choose between the two types of smoke detectors. While both are effective at detecting smoke, they do have different ways of working, and you might find it helpful to understand the difference when it comes time to choose. The two types of smoke detectors include:

    • Ionization – These have a circuit that is constantly running. When smoke particles enter the detectors, it interrupt that circuit, sounding the alarm to you and your family.
    • Photoelectric – These detectors rely on light. With an ultra-sensitive photocell, smoke is detected by its unique pattern of scattered light.

Preventing Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Carbon monoxide poisoning is a silent killer—undetectable by sight, smell, or taste. Without warning, exposure can lead to severe illness or death. Protect your family with professional carbon monoxide detector installation by Mr. Electric of Chattanooga. Some of the most common symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include:

  • Nausea
  • Headache
  • Sleepiness
  • Lightheadedness
  • Irregular breathing
  • Fatigue or weakness
  • Trouble breathing
  • Disorientation
  • Chest pain
  • Dizziness
  • Vomiting

Many household appliances that you use around your home on a regular basis can produce carbon monoxide gas. Something as simple as leaving your car running in an attached garage can cause carbon monoxide to build up in your entire home. If you're not a professional electrician, it can be hard to understand all the carbon monoxide hazards in your home. By installing a carbon monoxide detector, you will be warned when the carbon monoxide level in your home becomes unsafe. Protect your home and follow these tips to prevent carbon monoxide buildup in your home. Mr. Electric of Chattanooga suggests you:

  • Install one or more carbon monoxide detectors outside each bedroom and on each level of your house.
  • Replace the batteries in your carbon monoxide detector every year
  • Don't run vehicles, generators, or fuel-fed motors in your home or garage
  • Turn your car off the moment you park it. Never leave it running.
  • Buy appliances that have the American Gas Association or Underwriters' Laboratories (UL) Seal of approval.
  • Get professional inspections performed on your gas appliances every year
  • Don't use chemical heaters in enclosed spaces
  • Don't use malfunctioning gas appliances until they are repaired
  • Open your flue before using your fireplace or furnace
  • Don't use a gas oven to heat your home
  • Make sure your grill has enough ventilation
  • Use battery-operated heaters while camping
  • Adjust the gas flow and exhaust fans on all gas appliances
  • Reach out to your local fire department if you cannot afford a carbon monoxide detector. They may have a program in place to help you obtain one.
