Radio Frequency Mains Heat Detector RF10-PRO Battery

Kitchen Protection Without the False Alarms

The RF10-PRO is a mains-powered heat detector engineered for spaces where smoke alarms fail. Heat detectors respond to temperature increases rather than smoke particles, making them ideal for kitchens and dusty areas where smoke alarms produce false activations. Unlike traditional smoke detectors that trigger on cooking steam and fumes, this detector uses thermistor technology to distinguish genuine heat threats from everyday kitchen activity—eliminating nuisance alarms that undermine your confidence in fire safety.

True Whole-Home Coverage When Seconds Count

A single detector can't protect a multi-room or multi-storey property. The RF10-PRO solves this with integrated radio frequency technology that wirelessly interconnects with up to 20 compatible detectors. If a fire starts in the basement while you're sleeping in a second-floor bedroom, the alarm in the basement will instantly trigger the alarm outside your bedroom, providing a unified, whole-house warning that provides a critical head start for evacuation. Hard wired interconnection is time-consuming and disruptive, and costly particularly in existing dwellings; however, the ability to interconnect alarms without hard wiring has made mains powered alarms quicker and cheaper to install.

Power Reliability Beyond the Grid

Mains power delivers consistent, dependable operation—but what happens when the power fails? The RF10-PRO includes a sealed-in rechargeable lithium backup battery designed to last the life of the alarm (10 years) and cannot be tampered with during its lifespan. With interlinked units, if any unit detects smoke, alarms trigger all of the units even if household power has gone out. Unlike alkaline batteries requiring annual replacement, this sealed lithium system demands zero maintenance and eliminates the risk of depleted backup power when you need it most.

Installation That Respects Your Home

Built-in Fast Fix base technology enables straightforward installation without unnecessary damage to ceilings or walls. The discreet, 120mm diameter design blends seamlessly into modern interiors while delivering a commanding 85dB alarm at 3 metres—loud enough to penetrate walls and wake sleepers, yet compact enough not to dominate your décor.

Control When You Need It

Dedicated test and hush buttons give you command over your system. The hush function temporarily silences false alarms—common in kitchens during cooking—without disabling the detector, while the test button confirms all units in your interconnected system respond correctly. Tamper-proof design prevents unauthorised tampering.

Why Kitchen Safety Demands More Than Compromise

Alarms installed inside the kitchen must be heat alarms rather than smoke alarms. Heat alarms detect the increase in temperature from a fire and are insensitive to smoke and can therefore be installed in kitchens. The RF10-PRO's thermistor sensor responds to rapid temperature rise or fixed-temperature thresholds—precisely engineered to detect kitchen fires while ignoring steam and burnt toast. This specificity means your safety system works with your lifestyle, not against it.

For homeowners and landlords seeking dependable fire safety that integrates seamlessly with existing properties, connects effortlessly without rewiring, and requires zero battery maintenance over a decade—the RF10-PRO delivers professional-grade protection with genuine peace of mind.
