Smoke alarms are essential for every home. Every year, the Fire and Rescue Service visit more than 600,000 fires which result in more than 800 deaths.

They are able to detect fires in their early stages, giving you time to react to a fire. You can find different types of smoke alarms and they can be battery-powered or wired to the mains electricity.
