Core Inspection Group, LLC

Is your home actually as safe as you think? Most people don’t realize that not all smoke detectors are created equal. Knowing the difference: and keeping them maintained: is one of the simplest ways to protect your family.

Here is your quick Core Inspection Guide to smoke detectors:

- Ionization Detectors: Generally more responsive to fast-flaming fires.
- Photoelectric Detectors: Usually more sensitive to slow, smoldering fires.
- Dual-Sensor Detectors: The best of both worlds! They feature both technologies for maximum protection.

Safety doesn't stop at installation. Remember the 1-1-10 rule:
1. Test the button MONTHLY to ensure the alarm works.
2. Change the batteries EVERY YEAR (don't wait for the chirp!).
3. Replace the entire unit EVERY 10 YEARS.

Take five minutes this weekend to check your sensors and give yourself some peace of mind. Stay safe, Philly and South Jersey!

Happy ! 🏠🐜

Keep an eye out for these 2 signs during your Philly or South Jersey walkthrough:
1️⃣ Mud Tubes: Pencil-sized tunnels on foundations or walls.
2️⃣ Hollow Wood: If a joist or baseboard sounds thin when tapped, it’s a red flag.

Early detection saves you thousands. We’re here to give you peace of mind!
