LAS VEGAS, Feb. 19, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- International Builders' Show Booth #SU645 -- Welcome to the next level of home. With new connected home offerings that feature easy integration with each other and unparalleled functionality, along with trusted and code-compliant 10-year smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detection offerings, the BRK Brands portfolio of products is helping builders connect to what matters most at the 2019 International Builders' Show in Las Vegas, Feb. 19-21, 2019.
"As homeowners increasingly request having smart home capabilities built into their homes, our Onelink devices offer a simple, integrated solution to provide to them," said Mark Devine, Senior Vice President of Marketing at BRK Brands. "Likewise, our 10-year sealed battery alarm options make it easy for builders to comply with the ever-increasing number of building codes that specify this requirement."
Expanded Onelink Portfolio Provides Added Convenience throughout the Home
With Onelink, BRK proves that connectivity doesn't have to be complicated, as homeowners can easily access their home's safety features through the Onelink Home App and simple voice commands. New product offerings to showcase in your next building projects include:
BRK 10-Year Alarms Offer Ultimate Protection, with Easy Code Compliance
Looking for the total package? Look no further. BRK's selection of 10-year smoke and CO alarms are designed for all builder applications and tested to the highest industry standards. The alarms feature two-in-one, hassle-free protection that saves time and money by reducing wiring and eliminating the need for multiple alarms, while providing builders with an effortless installation process. With a lithium battery that lasts the entire life of the alarm, they also eliminate the risk of ever having an alarm deactivated due to battery removal.
The BRK 10-year hardwired smoke and CO alarms further raise the bar by incorporating 10-year battery backup technology, not only for smoke detection but also for CO, providing builders in any of the 45 states (and counting) that require CO detectors to be installed in new residences with a significant advantage. It uses an electrochemical CO sensor – the most accurate technology available, allowing homeowners to capture and retrieve the highest CO levels recorded in their home through the peak function.
"BRK and First Alert are the most trusted brands in home safety*, and with these latest innovations, we're taking our rich legacy of home protection to the highest levels yet," Devine said. "Building a home with our Onelink and 10-year alarm products is the ultimate way for builders and contractors to deliver what their clients want – safety, control and peace of mind."
