Timely detection of building fires is essential to incident prevention or to reduce the negative impact on human health. This paper presents a Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) system for temperature monitoring in a building. In general, sensor nodes in WSN are small, run-on batteries with very limited power resources; it is important to explore power management approaches to enhance network lifetime. The main aim of this system is to save energy costs and reduce power depletion. Through the deployment of many sensors, they collect information about the temperature and send it to the sink. The proposed method is based on multi-hop communication to decrease the transmission energy consumption and increase the monitoring coverage area. Furthermore, we computed the energy usage of the proposed system using Arduino and real sensor networks deployed indoors in the building. The results showed that the proposed system reduced the amount of energy consumed and increased the network's lifetime.
