Flood Sensor
This smoke detector
also has a carbon monoxide sensor to further improve the safety of your home. If it detects a problem, you'll get three alerts: a loud tone, voice alerts and a mobile notification to help you respond to the situation accordingly. We found this unit easy to set up and connect to Wi Fi. For example, you can create rules to have the lights turn on when motion is detected, have your doors unlock when a smoke alarm goes off, and have a camera begin recording when a sensor is triggered.Some systems store recorded video locally on an SD card or a solid state drive, while others offer cloud storage.Locally stored video is a good choice for do it yourselfers on a budget, but you have to be careful not to *overwrite video you may need later.Cloud *storage makes it easy to store and access recorded video, but *it can cost hundreds of dollars per year depending on your subscription.Some *systems offer both cloud storage and local storage, *and some provide a dedicated storage drive that gives you DVR capabilities with time lapse recording, which makes it easy to find a video event that took place at a specific point in time.

First Alert has also created a standalone mobile app for this smoke detector that lets you test, control and monitor the battery. Unfortunately, it's not available for this product on
Android devices, so you need an iPhone or iPad to use the app. Aside from HomeKit, this product doesn't work with any other smart home systems.
