Verisure’s smoke detectors are always active — constantly analysing the air for the smallest traces of smoke. This early detection helps identify danger long before flames spread.

When smoke is detected, the alarm sounds a powerful siren and issues a spoken voice alert to warn everyone inside. This gives you and your family time to react and get to safety.

If multiple alarms trigger or a fire is confirmed, the ARC will contact the fire brigade — even if no one is home. Operators can also speak directly through the system to guide anyone inside until help arrives.

When the smoke alarm is triggered, it sends an alert to the ARC, ensuring someone is there for you day and night. We respond within 45 seconds, on average.

Average of both human and automated responses Jan-Sept 2025, in line industry standard criteria EN50518.

Using connected smart cameras, Verisure’s trained security experts receive real-time images to verify whether smoke or fire is actually present. This helps avoid false alarms while ensuring a rapid, accurate response.

After responding, our ARC keeps you updated — with a call from one of our security experts to check you’re safe and let you know what’s happening next.

With lifetime maintenance and professional installation, your Verisure smoke alarms are always kept in perfect working order, giving you long-term peace of mind and reliable protection around the clock.
