Thank you Onelink by First Alert for sponsoring this post. A smart home should start with smart protection and Onelink by First Alert welcomes you to a smarter, safer home.
I’ve been on a smart home kick ever since we built our home. Safety has always been a priority for me, so I knew I wanted to take things one step further when it came to creating a not only a smart, but safe home.
I quickly realized just how easy it was to DIY your home into a smart and safe home! I always assumed it would be very expensive to do and would require a professional. However, that is not the case!
Today I’m sharing two must have products that I think every home owner should install in their home.
We have a lot of gas appliances in our home (gas stove and fireplace are just a few examples), so a carbon monoxide alarm was a must for us. There are so many to choose from, so ultimately it came down to something that would give us the maximum protection while also serving multiple purposes.
The Onelink Smart Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Alarm and Onelink Safe & Sound were our winners!
These are smoke and carbon monoxide alarms in one, and are packed with a ton of techie features to keep you informed and safe. They interconnect and can work alone or together – however you choose!
The Onelink Smart Smoke & Carbon Monoxide alarm can be hardwired or battery operated. Our Onelink Safe & Sound is hardwired, so I opted for the battery operated version of the Smart Smoke & Carbon Monoxide alarm for more flexibility with installation. Both were very easy to set up and get started!
The alarms connect to an app on your phone which will always keep you updated, even when you’re away from your home. This was a major selling point for me, especially since I have dogs and often worry about them when I’m gone!
Check out some of the cool features below!
Onelink Safe & Sound Features
