I had to replace a faulty Fire Angel smoke alarm in a property. I opted for the Aico Ei146E which is pricier than the Fire Angel; this is outweighed by the superior design and reliability of the Aico.... See more

Straight forward upgrade.
I've recently upgraded our smoke detectors, as the house was 11 years old it was time to replace and upgrade our old Aico smoke detectors, the new 3000 series bases are backward compatible with the existing bases, 10 minutes and both were swapped out.
You couldn't get any easier, great thinking by a great company.

Very reliable products
As an Aico installer I am impressed by the reliability of their products, haven’t ever had a customer complain about a faulty unit and love the constant product development.

Aico supports the installers who fit their products.
Aico’s products are top quality and function well with plenty of optional solutions and models to cater for the installation. Every alarm is tested, not batch tested like other manufacturers. Installation is straight ward since Aico support installers with a unique training program with huge resources for training, regulation changes and telephone advice and assistance for questions. Their products can be more expensive than rivals but what price is peace of mind.

Alarm has failed within 2 years and mfr won't replace it.
I have been using these smoke alarms for more than 20 years and am now on my 3rd set of replacements. One particular alarm has become sensitive (within 2 years of replacement), so I called AICO who advised that it was probably a spider causing a false positive. I should use a hairdryer to clear it and then it would be fine. Else there is a 5-year warranty and it would be replaced.
I did this and it still went off without there being a fire and now AICO tell me that this is due to contamination and it is my problem, without any investigation of whether the device may have developed a malfunction.
To ensure that that there was nothing inside, I opened the device up, only to be told that I had now invalidated my warranty.
Very poor customer service.

Recently bought the smart link and I’ve had nothing but problems setting it up. Terrible software and it doesn’t work with AICO smoke alarms. Very poorly designed and ridiculously expensive

Very good after sales service. Helpful and thorough.

The customer service help was excellent when we had problems with our Aico smoke/heat alarm system continuously activating with no apparent reason. They checked the units for me and reported back promptly.
Four stars only because the units are difficult to remove from the base plates and identifying a fault required them to open up the units at the factory. However I was very impressed with the prompt and courteous response I received.

Amazing customer support
One of the best customer service experiences I have ever had. From the initial first conversation to wrapping the call, Kelly was absolutely fantastic. She talked me through all the options regarding an issue I had with one of their products - turns out it was probably a house wiring issue which I shall get an electrician to fix.
In any case she couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful and I would have no hesitation in calling them again for any additional support needed. First class service all the way - thank you Kelly!
