Common questions for Smoke and CO Detector Wiring in Hill Country Village
Do I need hardwired smoke detectors or are battery ones enough?
New construction and most renovations require hardwired interconnected detectors with battery backup. Existing homes built before the requirement can keep battery-only detectors but the interconnect protection is meaningful.
How many detectors do I need?
Minimum: one in each bedroom, one in each hallway outside bedrooms, one per story. CO detectors near sleeping areas if fuel-burning equipment or attached garage. We map per code on the site walk.
What is the difference between smoke and CO detectors?
Smoke detectors sense particulate matter from combustion. CO detectors sense carbon monoxide gas. Combination detectors do both. CO is required where fuel-burning appliances or attached garages exist.
How often should I replace smoke detectors?
Every 10 years per NFPA. The sensor degrades over time. We document install dates so you know when to replace.
Can existing detectors be made interconnected?
Wireless-interconnect detectors can join an existing system without rewiring. Hardwired interconnect requires a 3-conductor cable between detectors. We pick the right path per home.
