Safety- Install a Smoke Detector in the Garage

Install a Smoke Detector in the Garage- Most homes do not have smoke detectors installed in garages which I cannot fully understand why. This is essential for being warned if a garage fire were to start. Make sure it is linked to the other fire detectors in the home and make sure it is a hard wired type. To avoid other potential problems make sure it is the same brand and model type as the other fire detectors in the home. I decided not to put in a combo fire/carbon monoxide detector due to if a car is parked in the garage it may trigger off the carbon monoxide detector by starting a car. I used First Alert hard wired 10 year battery from Lowes below.

Another idea is to have a hard wired Heat Alarm in the garage that ties into the rest of your smoke detectors.
