Protecting Against the Invisible Threat

Natural gas and propane efficiently power our homes, but they come with risks. A minor issue like a loose fitting or cracked pipe can quickly become hazardous.

What we deliver

We protect, not just watch

Relying solely on smell for gas detection is risky. Here's why a monitored system is crucial:

1. Household Alert

Gas leaks and CO buildup often occur at night. A slow leak can make you unconscious before you notice it. Our system triggers all alarms in the house, ensuring everyone wakes up and evacuates safely.

2. Automatic HVAC Shutdown

Our smart systems integrate with your thermostat or HVAC unit. If CO is detected, the system can automatically shut down the furnace, stopping the gas production immediately.

3. Rural Home Protection (Propane)

Propane is heavier than air and can pool along the floor, making it hard to detect. We install low-mounted sensors for homes using propane tanks, catching leaks at the source.

Great service! Blackbird Security is monitoring 3 buildings for us. The guards are on time, they make their rounds in the agreed time and they are alert. When I come late at night, the guards check me out to see what I am doing there, even though they know me and my car. Very attentive. Always answer calls, email back within 24 hours and report daily. If you need security... hands down, go with Blackbird!!!

Blackbird patrols have cleaned up my parking lot. Without them we had drug users sleeping in the corners leaving a big mess. They patrol every hour and their prices are very good!

I highly recommend Blackbird for any security needs. They provide patrol services to a property I manage in Vancouver and they have been able to reduce trespassing on the property as well as increasing the security of the building. Their customer service is top notch.

My condo building concierge, Peter, works for Blackbird Security. He is very friendly, professional and organized. We love him at our building! When he is away, they usually have a couple of other decent guards as well. My last building concierge was garbage so it makes a difference especially for parcels!

Deployment

Where Residential Gas Leak Detection Beneficial

Effective sensor placement is crucial and varies based on your gas type (City Gas vs. Tank) and appliance layout:

Utility Rooms & Basements

For Natural Gas, sensors are mounted high (gas rises). For Propane, sensors are mounted low (gas sinks).

Kitchens

Sensors are installed near appliances but positioned to avoid false alarms from cooking smells or unlit burners.

Laundry Rooms

Positioned behind the dryer where the gas line connects to the wall, a common failure point due to machine vibration.

Sleeping Areas

Outside each sleeping area to ensure the alarm is audible through closed doors.
