Wondering which smoke alarm you need?
Our Smoke and Gas Detectors Buying Guide has a wealth of information to help you decide which Smoke Alarms to buy, plus installation tips, maintenance advice, and guidance on certification standards and relevant regulations to be aware of.
What is the maximum heat temperature fire warning?
This Heat alarm gives a fire warning when the temperature at the unit reaches 60ºC.
Where is the heat alarm best placed?
It is ideal for kitchens, garages, cellars, boiler rooms, attics and other areas where there are normally high levels of fumes, smoke or dust which preclude the use of smoke alarms due to the risk of false alarms.
What is the ideal position of the alarm?
As hot air rises and spreads, it is advisable to mount on a ceiling in a central position. Avoid areas where there is no air circulation. E.g. corners of rooms and keep away from items which may prevent the free flow of air. Place the unit at least 300mm from any light fittings or decorative objects which might obstruct heat entering the alarm. Keep at least 300mm away from walls.
Is the alarm wall mountable and what advice do you give for positioning?
Yes this is wall mountable but do not mount tight into the corners. Put the top edge of your alarm between 150mm and 300mm below the ceiling and keep at least 300mm from room corners.
How do you position on a sloping ceiling?
In areas with sloping or peaked ceilings install your alarm in accordance with Figure 3ii (see instructions on pdf datasheet link) because "dead air" at the apex may not allow hot air to adequately enter the alarm.
