| Z-Wave | Works Local | Z-Wave smoke/CO detector; detects reliably though imperfectSaved copy… I didn't see it mentioned, but if you need more than one of them, it's going start adding up. Why not just get a z-wave smoke/co detector? I have the First Alert Zcombo models; they're not perfect, but they always detect and they're pretty easy to live with. Only real issue is that battery life is not great and you can't hard wire them. I think they were $45 each.

| Z-Wave | Partly works Local | Works well after migrating from Ring; can't silence alarms remotely in HASaved copyI migrated my First Alert Z-Wave (ZCOMBO), from my Ring Alarm system to home assistant, but seemingly the Home Assistant integration doesn't include the ability to silence the alarms remotely, which is something that could be done with Ring. Otherwise they work pretty well. Excerpt saved from the Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-23. | Reddit comment · 2025-12 |
Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.
In ReReHome
Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
