Carbon monoxide poisoning is a silent, deadly threat that claims hundreds of lives each year and leaves thousands sick. Several systems can release carbon monoxide, from stoves and gas clothes dryers to water heaters and gas or wood fireplaces. Since carbon monoxide has no taste, color, or smell, it can go undetected. Fortunately, carbon monoxide poisoning is preventable with properly installed and placed detectors.
Our trained electricians will install carbon monoxide detectors in strategic locations, including every floor of your home and outside every bedroom. Our services also include replacements for outdated units and repairs for malfunctioning ones. We handle all types of detectors with strict adherence to safety codes.
Double the detection with a combination smoke and carbon monoxide detector. These devices can detect smoke and dangerous levels of carbon monoxide in your home simultaneously, then alert you to the safety risk.
We install battery-powered and hardwired combination units. We can also replace an outdated device that has lost its effectiveness. Our team will equip your home with the latest and most reliable smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to some of the most common questions about smoke detectors.
What's the Best Way to Install Smoke Detectors in My Home?
Make sure you have a sufficient number of devices throughout your home. It helps to consult a professional to choose the right detectors and position them strategically. It's also best to leave the installation to a technician for peace of mind that your smoke detectors will work as intended.
Where Should I Install Smoke Detectors?
The NFPA recommends smoke detectors on every level of your home, including the basement. Install one inside every bedroom and one outside each sleeping area. Since smoke rises, it's best to mount detectors on the ceiling. You should also avoid placing them near doors, windows, and vents to prevent drafts from interfering with their operation.
How Can I Replace a Smoke Detector Battery?
The process for replacing smoke detector batteries varies by brand and model. You should follow the manufacturer's instructions for your specific device.
In general, the steps include unmounting the detector, opening the battery compartment, and replacing the old batteries with new ones. After putting in the new batteries and reattaching the detector, be sure to test it.

Duncan MacKenzie
We are so glad Chris was our service guy today. We knew that we needed a new fire alarm but did not know there were better alarms on the market. And Mr Soarky has a really good fire alarm. We bought six and had them installed. In addition, we purchased surge protectors for our three fuse boxes and both HVAC, outdoor units. It was a big bill compared to what we were anticipating but our electrical system is now fully protected. Thank you, Chris!

Webb was very nice, polite, and knowledgeable. He explained the issues and answered all my questions. I do appreciate the same day service. Price seemed high.
Anthony Favre
I highly recommend Mister Sparky. Andres and Joseph were professional, punctual, and knowledgeable, clearly explaining the work before completing it efficiently and safely. They were respectful of my home, paid close attention to detail, and cleaned up thoroughly afterward. I would absolutely use their services again and recommend them to anyone looking for quality electrical work!
Mark Scarborough

Scottie was highly knowledgeable and focused on the issues that needed addressing. He kept us informed during our visit describing what was needed and why. He inspired confidence in his ability and that the job was being done right.
Michael Shannon
Had a main breaker box needing relocated and brought up tp code. Austin, from Sparky, said he would stay on the job until power was restored. He completed the job the same day and got power back up. Very professional and hard working.
Pamela Schmierer
Excellent customer service! It is not easy to find a company that stands behind the quality of their work. The general manager himself came out to resolve a minor issue from a previous service call, and took his time to make sure it was done right. Truly went above and beyond. I will definitely be using this company again in the future.
Frank Altobelli

Outstanding Service — We've Found Our Electrician! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Mister Sparky of Barrington and Northbrook! Jack came out to our home and was an absolute professional from start to finish. Not only did he install a new outdoor outlet, but he also took the time to address and seal up work where previous electricians had overlooked important details. What really impressed us was his thoughtful, practical advice. He offered excellent recommendations for saving energy and even suggested a solar light for the end of our driveway rather than a more expensive wired solution. He genuinely focused on what would work best for our home and our budget! He also provided a quote for upgrading our smoke and carbon monoxide alarms to a fully hardwired system. It's refreshing to work with someone who is knowledgeable, thorough, and genuinely interested in helping homeowners make smart decisions rather than simply selling additional services. Jack went above and beyond, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Mister Sparky of Barrington and Northbrook has officially earned our trust and our business. They're our electricians from now on! Highly recommend Jack and the entire Mister Sparky team!

It initially appeared that my main vanity lighting in my master bath unsuite had stopped working. One quick call to Mr. Sparky and they were able to secure loose wiring and repair the switch. The technician was prompt, courteous and knowledgeable.

Ken knew what questions to ask and should have all he needs to provide a quote. Knew what he was doing and I'm confident in him.
Michael Garcia
Great and reliable company. After an issue came up, they sent a senior technician, Joshua, to address the matter. He did a masterful job, had an excellent attitude, and made sure we were 100% satisfied with the work. Highly recommend and will use them again.
Deborah Risbrook
Akeem was very professional and personable . He explained everything that needed to be done. He is definitely an asset to your company and I would highly recommend him to others

I really appreciated that after 5pm, a local real human been promptly answered my calls that speaks English, politely and helpfully as Becka and Geny. They schedule me quickly for next morning for free quotes. They sent a text with 30 minutes advance notice to let me know the tech was on his way. The Electrician Gavin Forney arrived on time. When asked him if he had shoes covers before entering my home, surprisly he already have it handy the nicest ever and happily ready to use it. He is very kind, polite, professional, knowledgeable, and respectful. The prices quoted was fair and my options where fully explained without pushing sales speech. Gavin was very pleasant to work with, so I decide to go forward to have the job done in the same day. He already come prepared to work, and cleaned the area after done an amazing job. I would request him for future projects, and most definitely recommended him for friends and family.

Joseph was diligent with his work and installed an EV charger for me. It was a sizable job given a new panel needed to be installed as well. I am happy with the end result.
Jeffrey Sparrow
Mister Sparky is a professional company. I love their staff from our technician, Omar, to Jim that appears to be head of the central command center. Besides great work the communication between us the client and their office is stellar. We upgraded our meter to meet city code for our remodel.
Don Greca
Tyler Cox and his apprentice were absolutely outstanding. They worked until an hour after dark making sure the job was done and it was ready for us to use the next day. Tyler was efficient and hard working. He was helpful and especially adept at keeping me, the customer, informed and in the loop regarding the job at hand. My wife and I were very pleased with the manner in which these young men represented the company they work for. Based on my interaction with these gentleman I would not hesitate to use Mister Sparky again.
