    CO Detector and Smoke Alarm Installation, Service and Maintenance

    KVA provides CO Detector and Smoke Alarm Installation and Maintenance for both residential and commercial customers across the Greater Toronto Area.

    It is equally important and crucial for people to know that all CO Detector and Smoke Alarm (Carbon Monoxide Detectors) must be replaced on average, every 7 to 10 years. This applies to all regardless of the size and age of your home or business, as it is the law that all CO Detectors and Smoke Alarms be replaced when these dates come due.

    Depending on the manufacturer and the date that these devices were manufactured, one should keep in mind those earlier models and makes had a life span of only 5 to 7 years. And as technology improves, so will the life span of these alarms and detectors will improve as well. Currently, most of the manufacturers are producing these CO Detector and Smoke Alarm with a general life span of approximately 10 years with a sealed non-replaceable Lithium Battery. This added benefit and feature gives you peace of mind knowing that these devices installed in your home or business will function without the need for constant maintenance until the end of the unit’s life. This makes it easier to manage as there is no need to be changing batteries every 6 to 12 months. This has been customary for a lot of people and not to mention that some people actually were forgetting to change them until it was in some cases too late.

Either way, you have much better control and understanding of all possible Hazards and issues in your home.
