Nest Protect FAQs
How does Nest Protect work?
This smart smoke detector utilizes an advanced split-spectrum sensor that offers better performance than traditional photoelectric sensors. It combines an infrared sensor with a second blue LED to identify a wider range of smoke particles. This enables it to spot smoldering fires as well as fast-burning blazes with speed and accuracy. Its carbon monoxide detection sensor should last for up to 10 years before it requires replacement.
What are the advantages of the Nest Protect smoke alarm vs. a traditional model?
Having a Wi-Fi CO detector and smoke smoke alarms means you don’t necessarily have to be at home to experience the protection it offers. Unlike most smoke alarms, the Nest Protect can send alerts to your smartphone via the Nest App or other connected device so you can respond to it no matter where you are. This means you may be able to have emergency responders at your home before it experiences catastrophic damages due to a fire. It also gives you the opportunity to test the alarm without having to climb onto a ladder.
How many CO detectors should you have in your home, and where?
The number of these devices you will need depends on the size and layout of your house. In general, it is recommended that you have one on each floor of your home, and to position them as close to any bedrooms as you can. You should also research the laws where you live, as specific locations for alarms may be mandated by state or municipal statutes.
