The innovation herein described provides a new and more effective method of controlling and monitoring smoke alarms installed in residential properties. There are two proposed solutions for the new innovative units. Either unit would be paired to all the smoke alarms in the home by Radio Frequency technology and would be connected to 240v mains power supply. These units may be incorporated into a light switch panel or a power point panel at a conveniently located position within the home. * A Retrofitted Internal Temporary Unit (RTUINT), may be plugged into any wall socket and can test or reset/hush all the installed interlinked smoke alarms by simply pressing the button on the front of the unit. Possible design may be seen in Figures 1 & 2. * A Permanent RTU (internal / external) (RTUEXT), may be mounted on an internal wall or mounted externally in a lock box for remote testing of the linked smoke alarms without the need to gain access to the building. The RTUEXT may be combined with a M2M modem for remote m
