The Problem: When a smoke or CO alarm head goes into the alarm state, it will sound its internal alarm, and alert the base station. This sets the base station off, and starts the process with SimpliSafe Monitoring. However, it does not alert any other heads in the home. This creates major problems w

Austin - You clearly laid out the issue. Thank you. I too am experiencing issues with this and it is a major safety issue. Hopefully simply safe will fix this interconnectivity issue. I guess until then I will buy and install the siren.

SimpliSafe - I have purchased 15 smoke and CO Detectors, plus 8 cameras, water detectors, motion sensors, entry sensors, etc. I love this system. However, I too just failed my final building inspection to gain our certificate of occupancy because the

Love my SimpliSafe system so far, but this is one glaring oversight. Where I live, my city has adopted the 2018 International Fire Code which requires, among other things, that if one alarm activates, it is interconnected with and activates all othe

I just failed my final building inspection because the smoke detectors are not interconnected. Building code clearly states this as a need. Very frustrating! Now I'm off to the big box store to buy Kiddie detectors. Seriously considering dropping Sim

I just have to return 6 smoke detectors as my county requires interconnected smoke detectors. This is a big miss. Please fix this.

I agree these need to be interconnected. This is one of the questions my Insurance company asked for my Homeowners coverage. Should be a simple software code update.

I'm really surprised to learn that they aren't interconnected. This is a huge liability and violation of many county codes. This should be top of Simplisafes development priority.

My town requires wireless smoke detectors to be interconnected (as an alternative to hardwiring for older houses). I thought Simplisafe met this requirement, but this post leads me to believe it does not. I just bought 10 smoke alarms from you and th

Yes, just learned this evening after false alarm in our youngest child’s bedroom upstairs. Humidifier set off alarm and we had all just fallen asleep.  I heard alarm and jumped out of bed to run upstairs.  Fortunately it was a false alarm.

I just hopped on Simplisafe (best system on the market by far) to see if there was a way to interconnect my detectors. In my opinion, this is going to be the standard by state law in most states before the sale of your house and these types of detec
