Is your home protected yet?
It’s a sad truth that house fires claim dozens of human lives in Flanders every year. Human suffering that can, however, be easily prevented. Especially at night, smoke development can have an asphyxiating effect if you are not alerted on time. Do not be mistaken: most victims are the result of poisonous smoke, not of the fire itself. This is why the Flemish government obliges the presence of smoke detectors in all private homes as of 1 January 2020.
A local alarm, and then what?
Your own safety naturally comes first. When your smoke alarm goes off, you in most cases have enough time to bring yourself to safety and to alert the emergency services. But who alerts the fire brigade when you are no longer capable or if no one is home?
This is why you should rely on an alarm system that automatically and directly alerts the emergency services when necessary. Your fire or smoke detector can be linked to a recognised emergency centre. This of type detector can even be connected to your existing alarm system and alert you when a fire has broken out in your home, and of the current actions.
