Installation takes under 30 minutes with the included mounting hardware and pre-synced units that communicate out of the box. The 10-year sealed battery eliminates maintenance reminders, and the intelligent silence feature distinguishes between burnt toast and real threats. We particularly appreciated the hush button accessibility without requiring a ladder for ceiling-mounted units.
