Cost Effective Retrofit & Remodel Solutions
• Wireless interconnect technology eliminates the need to pull wires
through existing walls
• Save an average of between $150 - $200** per alarm when
compared to retrofitting hardwired alarms in existing walls or ceilings
• Faster job turnaround - 4X more jobs completed increases your profits
• Photoelectric sensing technology saves maintenance calls with fewer nuisance alarms.
Putting the Innovation in Renovation
When it comes to alarm renovation and retrofit projects, choices have been
limited. Installing battery operated alarms and sacrificing interconnectability
or investing in the time and labor to retrofit hardwired alarms have been the
only options available.* Until Now! First Alert OneLink eliminates the need to
pull wires through existing walls saving time, money and labor.
No matter what your renovation project,
First Alert OneLink provides a cost effective solution:
Home Addition Projects:
Using the First Alert OneLink hardwired "Bridge Unit" (SA520B), simply replace one
hardwired alarm in the existing section and add one to the new section. Wireless
technology saves time, material and labor to connect to the existing alarm circuit.
Now add standard BRK hardwired alarms as required in the new section and other
First Alert OneLink battery alarms in the old section to complete the alarm safety
system and bring entire home up to code. All alarms, hardwired and battery,
existing and new are now interconnected.
Retrofit Projects:
Property Owners, Facility Managers and Electrical Contractors can all benefit from
installing First Alert OneLink alarms for existing retrofit projects. Saving $150 - $200**
per alarm and increasing job turnaround 4X are key reasons to consider First Alert
OneLink alarms for all of your renovation projects.
Mesh Network Communication
First Alert OneLink alarms operate on a "mesh network"; a
2-way communication format that sends, receives and then
re-sends the alarm signals. If the initiating alarm signal is
blocked from reaching one of the alarms, the mesh network
communication reroutes and re-sends the signal via the other
alarms as shown in the illustration. With competitive one-way
wireless communication, only the initiating alarm sends a
signal which may never be received, leaving the blocked alarm
deadly silent
.
*Local codes permitting
**Note: Based on average retrofitting costs of time, material and
labor to connect to existing alarm circuit, drywall repairs, painting, etc.
Special cases that require conduit, wire mold, concrete drilling, etc.
would add additional costs and increase savings.

Photoelectric Technology: Helps reduce nuisance alarms,
especially around kitchens and baths which are more prone
to nuisance alarms from cooking smoke and shower steam.
Optipath 360 Technology™: Patented technology
provides 360 degrees of direct access to smoke sensor.
Spread Spectrum Horn Tone: Lower and varying horn
frequency makes it easier for elderly with normal age
related hearing loss to hear horn. Sweeps through the
2200 - 3400 Hz range.
