Having your home security system detect a fire quickly is essential when it comes to avoiding damage. Learn how our monitored smoke alarm and fire detection work to protect you and the things you love.

The following steps are taken when your fire alarm is triggered:

  • Your monitored smoke detector detects smoke and sounds a loud alarm to alert you.
  • Guardian’s monitoring center calls you, and you get a mobile alert to verify any threats.
  • If a fire is confirmed or we can’t reach you, Guardian will contact the local fire department for help.
  • Gather your family and leave the home quickly.
  • Your local fire department will begin its response.
  • If you are unreachable, Guardian will call the rest of your emergency contacts.
  • Firefighters will arrive at your home to take care of any fires present.
