BRK‘s connected home offerings feature easy functionality, along with trusted, standard-and code-compliant 10-year smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detection offerings, showing that connectivity doesn’t have to be complicated, as homeowners can easily access their home’s safety features through an easy to use app and simple voice commands.
New products introduced at the 2020 International Builders’ Show included:
- Secure Connect Wi-Fi System – The Secure Connect Wi-Fi solution delivers faster, stronger, more reliable Wi-Fi throughout the home. True to the brand’s legacy of home safety and protection, the system places a premium on security by creating a closed, private network to help detect and prevent cyber-threats and hacks. The system also gives users greater control over their Wi-Fi network usage. With one tap of the Connect App, they can pause the internet, filter content or set rules such as time limits and bedtime. With an emergency override feature, it will also send emergency notices to screens connected to the home’s network.
- First Alert Video Doorbell – Safety begins at the front door, and the new video doorbell system brings homeowners even more control over monitoring their home whether home or away. With premium features like 1080 HD live video, motion detection alerts, two-way audio and more, this new smart doorbell solution offers an added level of security outside of the home. First Alert’s Connected Safety Video Doorbell is compatible with Amazon Alexa Skills.
- Safe & Sound – The Safe & Sound just keeps getting better, with expanded features to excite homeowners like Alexa Calling and Messaging and upcoming Apple Airplay 2 capabilities. The Safe & Sound goes where no alarm has gone before, delivering First Alert’s trusted smoke and CO protection, along with a superior home speaker and Alexa built in. True to its name, the device is specifically designed for ceiling installation for a great sound experience via the natural acoustic backdrop, filling the room with immersive sound. Users can simply ask Alexa on their Safe & Sound to play music, hear the news, check the weather and control other smart home devices. The Safe & Sound is also compatible with Apple HomeKit.
