The Brink's Home Security Monitored Heat and Smoke Detector

If you own a smoke detector, you obviously realize how effective they are in helping prevent loss of life and property. But, it is important to understand the differences between the stand-alone battery-operated smoke detector you buy at the store and a monitored home heat and smoke detector installed as part of the Brink's Home Security system. Battery-operated/non-monitored home heat and smoke detectors are not connected to other smoke detectors or warning devices. The Brink's home heat and smoke detector is connected to the Brink’s control panel and is monitored by the Brink's Home Security Alarm Monitoring Center. If smoke or unusually high temperature is detected, the heat and smoke detector sets off an alarm and a signal is sent to our monitoring center. Brink's Home Security, in turn, notifies the fire department, then calls you to verify the alarm*. The monitored Brink's heat and smoke detector provides a quick link to the Brink's Monitoring Center, whether you are at home, away from home, sound asleep or unable to get to the phone.

There are many advantages to installing the monitored Brink's home smoke detector: They provide the best early warning fire protection. Once smoke is detected, the fire alarm sounds and a signal is sent to Brink's. Brink's Home Security, in turn, notifies the fire department, then calls you to verify the alarm*. The Brink's fire alarm is ldesigned to be loud enough to wake even the soundest sleeper. You have peace of mind whether you are at home, at work, out for the evening or unable to reach the phone. The monitored Brink's smoke/heat detector could save you up to 20% on your homeowners insurance.
