Page 2: Smoke Alarm Limitations And Functions
SMOKE ALARM LIMITATIONS AND FUNCTIONS There are three basic smoke alarm types: IoPhic , Ionization and Photoelectric. IoPhic is an ionization alarm containing a patent-pending Universal Smoke Sensing Technology. IoPhic alarms are very effective at detecting fast flaming fires and also respond very quickly to slow smoldering fires - up to 87% faster than the maximum allowable alarm limit (UL217 Smoldering Smoke Test on 5/26/2010, Underwriters Laboratories Project #09CA38078). -
Page 3: Recommended Location Of Alarms
RECOMMENDED LOCATION OF ALARMS • Locate the first smoke alarm in the immediate area of the bedrooms. Try to protect the escape route as the bedrooms are usually farthest from an exit. If more than one sleeping area exists, locate additional smoke alarms in each sleeping area. If a hall is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long, install a smoke alarm at each end. -
Page 4: Avoid These Locations
• the garage – products of combustion are produced when you start your vehicle. • near appliances or areas where normal combustion regularly occurs (kitchens, near furnaces, gas hot water heaters). Use smoke alarms with photoelectric sensors or smoke alarms with Silence Feature for these areas. -
