DESCRIPTION
This unit uses a photoelectric smoke detection
chamber. Photoelectric technology is more
sensitive to detecting slow smoldering fires which
generate thick, black smoke, a little heat and may
smolder for hours before bursting into flames.
Unlike previous ionizing alarms, this smoke alarm
does not contain radioactive material and is
harmless to the environment.
Emerald Planet recommends that smoke alarms
be installed in every room (except bathrooms
and kitchens), and every other area of the home,
making sure all people in the home will be able to
hear and respond to the alarm when activated.
Each state of Australia has its own legislation
regarding smoke alarm requirements. Please refer
to the following websites to check your states
current installation requirements.
