It has been found in a survey that 80% of losses caused due to fire would have been avoided if the fire was detected immediately. Arduino fire detector from Microtronics Technologies is the solution to this problem. In this Arduino fire alarm system using temperature and smoke sensor project, we have built a fire alarm using Arduino Uno which is interfaced with a temperature sensor, a smoke sensor, and a buzzer. The temperature sensor senses the heat and the smoke sensor senses any smoke generated due to burning or fire. A buzzer connected to Arduino gives us an alarm indication. Whenever a fire is triggered, it burns objects nearby and produces smoke.
A fire alarm can also be triggered due to small smoke from candlelight or oil lamps used in a household. Also, whenever heat intensity is high then also the alarm goes on. The buzzer or alarm is turned off whenever the temperature goes to normal room temperature and the smoke level reduces. We have also interfaced the LCD display and Relay to the Arduino board.
Arduino fire alarm system is an important system for industrial purposes as well as for household purposes. Whenever it detects fire or smoke then it instantly alerts the user about the fire through the Bluetooth module. For this purpose, we are using Arduino Uno which is from the Arduino family. Also, the Arduino interfacing with an LCD display is done to display the status of the system whether the Smoke and overheating are detected or not.
Arduino interfacing with the Bluetooth module is done so that the user gets an alert message. It intimates the user about fire detection. This system is really useful whenever the user is not in the house or industry or inside the premises. Whenever a fire occurs, the system automatically senses and alerts the user by sending an alert to an app installed on a user’s Android mobile.
We have seen many Arduino projects ideas that prove to be a lifesaver for us. Arduino fire detector is one of them. A fire detector based on an Arduino board and smoke & temperature sensor is an Arduino Security alarm system with minimum configuration.
We need to protect our property and assets within the property. Today’s large modern structures are in need of a new solution to fight against fire. For example art galleries, museums, hotels, board rooms, offices, and commercial warehouses. In these places, the Arduino fire alarm system provides protection from fire.

Question: Can we replace Bluetooth with an IOT (Internet of Things) or a GSM modem?
Answer: Yes, we can implement these changes.
