Photoelectric smoke alarms are more advanced than the old ionisation smoke alarms. They respond faster to most fire types as they can detect a smouldering fire. They are also less likely to react to a false alarm.
Evidence strongly suggests that interconnected smoke alarms installed in bedrooms greatly increase the chances of you and your family escaping unharmed. In a fire, interconnected smoke alarms will all activate. This will warn you no matter where you are in the house.
If smoke alarms are hard-wired with a battery backup they will always work.

With hardwired smoke alarms, even if the power has gone out then the battery backup will kick in. Find out more about the latest smoke alarm legislation.
