Monitored Fire & Carbon Monoxide Detection

Why monitored detectors matter

Typical fire and carbon monoxide detectors work great while you are home. But if you are gone, nobody is there to hear the alarm, call the fire department, or get your pets and belongings out of the house.

Monitored fire and carbon monoxide detectors alert you and the monitoring center whenever there is a detection, whether you are home or not. That gives you and the fire department an early signal to respond and save the home, and possibly the pets inside.

What is covered

• Smoke detection tied to your security system, not just a local beep.
• Carbon monoxide detection near sleeping areas and fuel-burning appliances like gas water heaters, furnaces and fireplaces.
• Phone alerts so you know right away, wherever you are.
• Monitoring center response to get the fire department moving.

Pets, travel and empty homes

If you work long days, travel, or leave the house empty for the summer, monitored detection covers the hours nobody is home. Read our guide to monitored smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, or add detection to a new home security system.
