Vital Ease — home modification and maintenance solutions

A smoke alarm that wakes you,even if you cannot hear it.

The Bellman Smoke Alarm Pack (model BE8067) links a photoelectric smoke alarm to a bedside alert that sounds, flashes, and shakes the bed — for people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or sleep too deeply to wake to an ordinary alarm.

A ceiling smoke alarm is loud for someone with normal hearing. For a person who takes their hearing aids out at night, or who is profoundly deaf, it can sound for minutes without waking them.

This pack sends the alarm to the bedside instead. When smoke is detected, the person is woken three ways at once: a loud alarm, a bright strobe light, and a bed shaker under the pillow or mattress. It keeps working in a power cut.

Why itworks.

  • Three alerts at once

    A loud alarm, a bright strobe light, and a powerful bed shaker, so the warning reaches a deep sleeper or someone with hearing loss.

  • Photoelectric smoke alarm

    The type recommended for homes, because it picks up smouldering fires early. It has a sealed ten-year battery, so there is no battery to change or forget.

  • Works in a power cut

    Fires and power failures often happen together, so the system is built to keep alerting when the mains power is off.

  • Expands to the whole home

    Part of Bellman’s Visit system: add more smoke alarms for other rooms, a doorbell or phone alert, or extra receivers later.

Questions

What people ask aboutbellman smoke alarm pack.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the smoke alarm pack wake a deaf person?
With a bed shaker. When the smoke alarm is triggered, the bedside unit sounds a loud alarm and flashes a strobe light, and a shaker placed under the pillow or mattress vibrates. For most people who are deaf, the vibration is what wakes them.
Do I still need my existing smoke alarms with the Bellman pack?
Yes. Your home must keep the smoke alarms the regulations require. The Bellman pack adds an alert that reaches the bedroom and the person in it; it does not stand in for the alarms the house is required to have.
Does the Bellman smoke alarm battery need changing?
No. The smoke alarm has a sealed battery that lasts ten years, so there is no low-battery chirp and nothing to replace in that time. You should still press the test button regularly to check the alert reaches the bedroom.
Can I get the compliance documents for this smoke alarm?
Yes. Ask us and we will send the manufacturer’s documentation for the alarm we supply, which is what an occupational therapist or a building surveyor will want on file. We do not quote compliance details from memory.
