the best heat alarms
Over 50% of domestic fires in the UK start in the kitchen. Installing a reliable heat alarm is essential to safeguard your home and loved ones.

Unlike traditional smoke alarms, heat alarms are specifically designed to detect rapid temperature increases without being triggered by everyday cooking fumes or humidity. In this blog, we’ll explore two top-tier heat alarms from FireAngel: the Pro Connected Kitchen Heat Alarm FP1720W2-R and the Kitchen Heat Alarm FA6720-R. Both models offer advanced features and unparalleled protection for high-risk areas like kitchens, garages, and lofts.
