Hi all,I work for a multifamily owner/operator in New England and am looking to compare field experience with the newer BRK / First Alert Precision Detection hardwired alarms, primarily:
SM110V-AC
SMCO110V-AC
These replaced older BRK models.Since installation, we've experienced an ongoing number of nuisance smoke alarm activations with these devices. I am trying to determine whether our experience is unique or whether others have observed similar behavior.For property managers, maintenance directors, facilities teams, electrical contractors, or housing operators:
Have you installed these newer Precision Detection models?
Did nuisance alarm frequency change after replacing older alarms?
Have you experienced overnight activations without an obvious source?
Have maintenance callbacks increased, decreased, or stayed the same?
Has BRK/First Alert provided any explanation or solution that helped?
Any feedback or real-world experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.-Kevin
