According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, 2,100 people die annually in our country because of unintentional carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. CO poisoning has grown to be the United States’ number one poisoning deaths cause. Carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, odorless, making it an undetectable killer when you fail to place a carbon monoxide detector in your home. However, carbon monoxide poisoning is completely preventable by having a licensed electrician install a carbon monoxide detector in areas meeting state and local guidelines. Furthermore, the law mandates homeowners install smoke detectors in their households. You can safeguard your loved ones against domestic disasters like fires and CO poisoning by having Mr. Electric of Lake County perform a carbon monoxide and smoke detector installation in Lake County, the Villages, Clermont, Leesburg, Lady Lake, and Mount Dora, FL.

Smoke Detector Installation for a Safe Home
Mr. Electric of Lake County installs smoke detectors around your home to ensure your household meets state and local laws. According to these laws, homeowners must place smoke detectors near each of their home’s bedrooms. Additionally, these detectors must also be in garages, stairways, and halls. According to new construction laws, smoke detectors must be connected to your home’s electrical wiring if it’s new. You also need to install detectors with a battery backup system, which must interconnect. According to the National Fire Protection Association, residents must replace their existing smoke detectors every 10 years. These devices have a limited 10-year lifespan and are only good for that time. Over time, a smoke detector’s electrical components degrade and lose their reliability with age. Our licensed and experienced electricians can help you choose smoke detectors fitting your household needs, such as the following:
- Ionization – This detector type functions by running a continuous current between electrodes. Smoke interrupts your detector’s current and triggers an alarm as it travels into it.
- Photoelectric – Your unit reacts to light reduction as it reaches an internal photocell in this detector type. An alarm sounds when smoke scatters lights as it goes into your unit.
