Requirements for Residential Smoke Detectors in Gainesville, GA

According to Georgia fire protection and safety code, battery-operated smoke detectors need to be installed in every floor of a home, in every sleeping area, and in a central location where every bedroom has access to it.

At Master Electric Heating and Air we are up to date on both the National Electrical Code and Georgia state regulations and standards. Our experts will help you determine the best locations for placing your smoke detectors and make sure they are installed according to code and manufacturer recommendations.

Selecting the Right Type of Smoke Detector for Your Home

There are three types of smoke detectors available.

Ionization: This type of smoke detector responds best to flaming fires. The alarm is triggered when smoke enters the ionization chamber; this disrupts and reduces the current flow of ions, allowing the alarm to activate.

Photoelectric: These devices are more effective at detecting smoldering fires. They are triggered when light is reflected on the sensor by smoke.

Dual-sensor: In order to ensure comprehensive coverage and protection, having both ionization and photoelectric smoke detectors in your home is recommended. You can easily carry this out by opting for dual-sensor alarms, which feature the two types of technologies.

Our experts are happy to help you select the right type of smoke detector and can supply you with devices from a trusted manufacturer, or install devices you’ve already purchased.

Testing and Maintaining Your Smoke Detector

According to the National Fire Protection Association, smoke detectors should be maintained based on manufacturer guidelines. Your devices should be tested at least once a month; simply push on the test button to make sure the alarm sounds.

If the alarm doesn’t come on after testing, the detector may need new batteries (changing the batteries every year is recommended) or there could be a wiring problem that will require professional attention. To ensure that you continue to have efficiently working smoke detectors in your home, they should be replaced every 10 years.

Called and spoke with the owner about their Preventative Maintenance HVAC programs. He has a great plan and had a technician to our house within the week to look at our system. The report was fine. I would not hesitate to use them in the future if/when we have a problem.As a matter of fact I recommended them to a neighbor who had a problem with their HVAC system. Masters responded quickly (which was important in the summer heat) and fixed his problem on one visit. My neighbor and I are both very happy with their service. We will use them again for HVAC or Electrical work.Royce & Maria Pittman

I had Master Electric Heating and Air come out to diagnose an issue with our HVAC. The service was prompt. He offered good advice and helped me make a good decision on next steps. I felt the owner was honest and actually wanted to help me make the best decision on my 15 year old systems. I would definitely call them again.

We currently have our house on the market but there were some electrical problems that needed to be fixed. I called Master Electric and the technician named James arrived on time and was very professional. He took care of my problems in a timely manner and the price was reasonable. I highly recommend this company. This is the second time I've used them.

The owner was very courteous and helpful, even in the midst of the pandemic shutdown. He was competent and checked our systems thoroughly and solved our problem for now. I recommend this company highly.

I've dealt with Master on both large projects and also when my own HVAC home unit went out. In both situations, they responded fast and took care of whatever the situation requires. They are real craftsmen, and take pride in their work and how they treat people. Once they accept a job, you can stop worrying because it will be fixed, and done right. Very nice staff.

Highly recommend Master Electric. Great service, quality work, fair price and quick response time. These guys are courteous and respectful of your home-won’t track in dirt or leave a mess. Service guys explain things in simple terms and give advice on repair options. Never pushy and don’t up sell unless you ask them. Great experience every time I need them.

This group is stellar. They do what they say they will do and have integrity about them from start to finish. We have used their HVAC services for years, both for my business as well as personally. I appreciate doing business with people I trust, and you won't find a better or more trustworthy group to do the work you need done. Highly recommend!!!

Master Electric handled 100 + standby generator installs for my company in 2019 and I will be the first to say they are top notch. Rebecca and Gary are always a pleasure to work with - very professional and dependable. Working with them always leaves me with a feeling of ease because I know that customer is in the best hands! I would highly recommend them to anyone for any electrical work. You won't find any better around!

Timely response to my problem, accurate and timely diagnosis of issue and immediate repair. Had necessary parts on truck so no delay in repair while chasing parts.

I’ve used Gary and his Master Electric Heating & Air team for all the services that they offer. They’ve done the small electric stuff like fan install, electric troubleshooting, lighting and dock inspections. They do all my heating and air work on the three systems that I have. But they’ve done the really big projects as well like install my new whole house generator. The price was competitive and they recommended a propane company to install the new propane tank I needed. They did all the coordination and all the work went off without a hitch. A couple of weeks later we had a big storm that took out the area power. The generator kicked in seamlessly and we had power until the area came back online in a few hours. We were new to the area last year and quickly developed a relationship with Gary as he’d done the majority of the work on the house for several of the previous owners. I’ve found that I can trust Gary and if you use his team I know you will come to feel the same.

Master Electric just installed a whole house generator for me. The second one as I moved from my previous location. I requested them to do the second install at my new location since they did a thorough job on the first one. The second one was just as good. High quality communication and work.
