Are you sure about this? Here in the US the smoke detectors are not linked and it's something we've been asking about for a while now. If the smoke detectors sold in the UK are linked and the ones sold in the US are not I'm going to be really irritated.
@Davey,
Please confirm whether the units solid in the UK are linked or not. And if they are linked, why aren't the units sold in the US linked?

My previous replies were we will pass it to our team to look into... I have told them multiple times there going to miss sales on entire country re smoke sales and equally annoy those who have them.
Zero heat detector. At one point I was told the freeze detector had a higher limit however I had to point out it didn't check every second ! And wouldn't do what needed.
As far as I know they DO link (smokes) as set off the sirens and I have 3 of these (2 internal) but ... without the heat one for kitchen it's all pointless and as you can see my frustration

I received the following reply from Simplisafe Support this morning
Hello Peter,
Thankyou for contacting SimpliSafe. We are currently in development of a new heat detector which is expected in 2022. We strive to fit our customers needs and to maintain the high level of security and safety in our customers homes.

That is not typically what is meant when a vendor says their smoke detectors are "linked", at least in the US. Here it means that if one smoke alarm goes off, they all go off. With SImpliSafe in the US at least, the one smoke alarm goes off but the rest do not. Yes, it alerts your system but if you're on the far end of the house from the fire and base station then the smoke alarm in your room doesn't go off if there's a fire somewhere else in the house.
It may mean something else in the UK.
