Smoke detectors have been a staple appliance in homes across America for decades. However, advancements in science and technology have merged to create amazingly high tech models for futuristic home owners. Is it time to replace your outdated smoke detectors? At Mr. Electric of Fort Worth, we help local North Texas families and businesses have the electrical power needed to fuel their lives. We want to help make sure your family is safe from the dangers of electrical fires and carbon monoxide poisoning, and smart smoke detectors are an excellent way to achieve just that. Here are just a few of the reasons why investing in a smart smoke detector is a good idea.

Why Are Smoke Detectors Important?

According to an NFPA report, fire departments respond to an average of over 350,000 house fires per year. Out of those, approximately 5,300 of them were caused by electrical issues. In 65 percent of those cases, the fires occurred in homes without a working smoke detector. Having quality fire and carbon monoxide detectors can help your family avoid personal injury and property damage by instantly alerting the household to a potential emergency.

The guys were super nice, I loved that they did the work immediately. Also after having a discussion with them about the static electricity from a lightenimg strike we had and it fried everything they suggested a surge protector to keep that from happening again. So we did that.

Scheduled an appointment with Mr Electric of Fort Worth and received a call they were able to show up early and had Dylan show up on time stocked with a full truck. He was able to diagnosis the issue quickly and restore my power to a few plugs that were causing the breakers to trip continuously. Dylan was very knowledgable, clearly explained the cause and how he would fix the issue, and addressed all concerns that we had. He was replaced two breakers and installed 2 new outlets along with diagnosing the problem in about an hour. Very quick and so far seems to have resolved our electrical issue. Would definitely recommend Mr Electric of Fort Worth!

Dylan was so nice and always on time. Very qualified and explained everything he needed to do in a way I understood. My older house required an outside panel so I had a lot of work but Dylan and his helper worked together very well and finished on time so I was not out of power more than needed. Everything looked and worked great when done. I don't know how he was able to replace the cracked power pole and wiring on my roof so quickly and beautifully. I am very, very impressed with his skill level and would request him for any future work. The company is very well organized and office contact was a pleasure to work with(which is rare since these positions are usually underpaid)so reward her well, she is the "door" to your organization. She and Dylan sealed my deal!

Cody was professional, knowledgeable, and was able to provide me with a quick diagnosis pertaining to a wiring issue in one of my rooms. He gave me the price for the repair/modification and fixed the issue all in less than an hour. Thanks Cody!
