In a wired system, the sensors communicate with the control panel via cables. The wireless system’s sensors communicates wireless-ly and uses ultra long lasting batteries (usually 5 years).
For single storey homes where there is a roof cavity, we will be recommending a wired system. The wired system’s cables will run along the roof space.
For homes without a roof space or non pre-wired double storey homes, we recommend a wireless system as in most cases this is the only way we can install sensors without the wires running along the wall/ceilings. The wireless sensors are very reliable and have a range of up to 100m.
