Go Beyond Compliance with One Device

One integrated device meets multifamily fire code requirements while adding comfort and security features, reducing hardware costs, and simplifying design and installation.

Whether you're planning a ground-up development or a retrofit, PLACE helps you meet today's fire code without redesigning your ceiling plan.



Advanced smoke and CO detection helps keep units compliant and residents protected, without adding extra devices to the ceiling plan.

Built-in ambient temperature, humidity, VOC sensing, and a smart nightlight deliver everyday comfort without adding more hardware.

Built-in motion detection and camera support helps monitor activity and deter intrusions. No forcing separate installations or visual clutter.

Smarter Security, Safer Spaces

In constantly growing multifamily communities, maintaining property-wide safety is paramount for both residents and staff. Keep a watchful eye on your property and allow secure, convenient access for residents and authorized visitors. Safeguard employees even further with personal security wearables––empowering them to get help quickly when needed. Whether it’s viewing live video feeds, reviewing access codes, or getting alerts on unexpected activity after hours, you always have a central view into what’s happening at your properties.

Future-Proof & Sustainable

We understand how hard it is to keep up with evolving energy regulations. That’s why we make it easy to reduce energy and associated costs by integrating our trusted solar, EV charging, and battery storage technologies. Elevate tenant comfort and safety while enhancing your property’s value with our comprehensive in-unit solutions––including smart thermostats, advanced water leak detection and shutoff, energy-efficient lighting, smart smoke detectors and smarter access control––to create a fully-connected living space. All manageable from one central place, property managers are able to manage energy consumption across vacant units at scale, saving money and promoting sustainability in the long run.

FAQs

What does “updated fire-safety code” mean for multifamily teams?

Recent code updates require a 520-Hz low-frequency square wave signal in all sleeping areas of Group R-1 and R-2 occupancies. Most traditional approaches meet this requirement by installing separate sounder, smoke, and CO devices.

PLACE is the only device on the market that meets the updated code in one single device.

Can architects specify PLACE in project plans?

Yes. PLACE allows architects to meet fire code requirements with a single device, reducing the need to coordinate multiple devices and simplifying ceiling layouts.

Is PLACE only for new construction?

No. PLACE can be used in both new developments and retrofit projects to meet current code requirements.

Is PLACE more expensive than traditional options?

No. By reducing device count and complexity, teams can streamline ceiling plans, minimize coordination across trades, and reduce installation friction—often where hidden costs live.

Can we standardize PLACE across different floorplans?

Yes. The modular approach supports consistent specs across units, with room-specific configurations where needed.
