Luxury home utilizes VESDA-E VEA (Smoke) & VESDA Sensepoint XCL (gas) detection

A high-end, 30,000 sq ft, four-level residential home in the Chicago suburbs needed comprehensive fire and carbon monoxide protection that preserved the house’s aesthetics. Homeowners, the designer and the insurer tasked installer Paul Heath Associates with finding a reliable, discreet detection solution that covered multiple bedrooms and gathering areas while complying with residential codes.

Paul Heath Associates installed VESDA‑E VEA aspirating smoke detectors with low‑profile sampling points and integrated VESDA Sensepoint XCL CO sensors inline with the VEA tubing, avoiding major construction or additional electrical runs. The combined, addressable system provides early smoke and CO detection, meets code requirements, blends with the décor, centralizes maintenance in a remote equipment room, and delivers state‑of‑the‑art protection for the family and their belongings.
