Nest Protect has been redesigned from the inside out. It has a Split‑Spectrum Sensor, tests itself automatically and lasts up to a decade. It’s also the first home alarm you can hush from your phone without any extra hardware required. And it tells you what’s wrong and can even alert your phone.
Shuts off your furnace when it detects Carbon Monoxide gas. When paired with the Google Nest Thermostat.
Sees both fast and slow-burning fires.
The foam and particle board in much of today’s furniture make fires burn faster. Technology should keep up. The Split‑Spectrum Sensor uses two wavelengths of light to detect smoke from both fast-burning and smouldering fires.
10-year CO sensor.
Carbon monoxide is poisonous, but you can’t see it or smell it. That’s why Nest Protect has a long-lasting carbon monoxide sensor that keeps working for up to a decade.
Thoughtful, not annoying
- Tests itself: You’re supposed to test smoke alarms monthly. But most people don’t. So Nest Protect checks its batteries and sensors over 400 times a day. And it’s the first alarm that uses Sound Check to quietly test its speaker and siren once a month.
- Lights your way: If you need a glass of milk in the middle of the night, Nest Protect lights up as you walk underneath it. Pathlight is one of our customers’ favourite features, so we’ve made it better and brighter.
- Steam is not smoke: Has your alarm ever yelled at you for having a shower? Nest Protect comes with Steam Check. It uses custom algorithms and a humidity sensor to look for steam so that you can enjoy a nice, quiet shower.

is it really compliant in Ontario for new builds? what about the strobe intensity and wireless interlink. I’ve read that it does not meet the requirements.
Hi Rick,
As far as replacement of Smoke/CO detectors we have been advised by a fire marshall they were up to code. However, for new construction if that code has changed we can confirm and update this article.
Thanks
I just had a new build in Ontario purchased all google nest protects for every place alarms were required. Had to take them all down and replace with up to code detectors before they would grant occupancy because there is no strobe.
