Z-WaveWorks LocalPaired well, exposes several sensors in HA

I supplemented my existing smoke detector system by adding two First Alert Zwave combo smoke/CO detectors. Thankfully I haven't had any need to test that they work fine with an actual fire, but they paired well, and show in HA and expose a few different sensors. Air quality recommendations are usually AirThings I think but I don't have personal experience with those.

I'm using several First Alert Z-Wave smoke/CO detectors. Mine are an older model but here's the current one: https://www.firstalert.com/products/z-wave-plus-smart-smoke-carbon-monoxide-alarm-works-with-ring?variant=51388206743826

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.
