Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detector Installation in Calgary

Your Safety Starts With Reliable Detectors

Smoke and carbon monoxide emergencies give little warning. Working detectors are one of the most important safety systems in your home — and they need to function properly every day. A hardwired, interconnected setup ensures all alarms sound at once, giving everyone in your home time to react, even if a battery fails.

At Emerald Electric, we make sure your detection system is installed correctly, up to code, and ready to do its job when it matters most.

  • A full in-home assessment to identify expired, faulty, or missing detectors

  • Clear recommendations tailored to your home’s layout and safety needs

  • Upfront, itemized pricing with no hidden fees or surprises

  • Installation by licensed Calgary electricians with over a decade of hands-on experience

  • A 2-year parts and labour warranty on every system we install

Protecting your home shouldn’t be complicated. We provide safe, professional installation and straightforward guidance — so you can feel confident your detectors are working exactly as they should.

  • Tanner did a fantastic job changing out two of our indoor lights, three outdoor patio lights and fixing our pot lights/dimmer plate. Tanner was punctual, polite and did everything that was quoted in the time quoted. He even noticed an out of date CO2/smoke alarm that he changed out the same day. Will be using Emerald Electric again!!

  • Emerald Electric just completed a panel upgrade for our aging home…Tanner made all the arrangements, showed up exactly when he said he would, and was completely prepared for the task that was to be completed. Tanner proved to be a pleasant, honest individual that goes above and beyond and provided honest professional workmanship… I would recommend Tanner and his company to anyone needing a good solid, honest company for any of their electrical needs.

  • We had the good fortune of hiring Tanner Statham of Emerald Electric to replace several light fixtures and upgrade the electrical panel in our sixty year old home. Tanner was very professional and knowledgeable, offering great advice about replacement fixtures and completing all the work in a timely fashion at a reasonable price. I highly recommend Emerald Electric and would definitely hire this business again.

  • Needed a bathroom fan replaced. Tanner was very efficient and easy to work with. He even spotted some outdated smoke detectors on the property that we swapped out as well. Very thorough! 10/10 would recommend and will hire again as needed in the future.
