The science of smoke alarm technology

This smoke alarm is designed using ionization technology which allows it to detect fast-flaming fires that spread quickly. There are two basic types of smoke alarms - IONIZATION Type and PHOTOELECTRIC type.

IONIZATION smoke alarms are generally more effective at detecting fast, flaming fires - fires which consume combustible materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include paper burning in a waste basket, or grease fire in the kitchen.
PHOTOELECTRIC smoke alarms are generally more effective at detecting slow, smoldering fires - fires which can smoulder for hours before bursting into flames. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes burning in couches or bedding.

For maximum protection, use both types of smoke alarms on each level of your home. The National Fire Protection Association recommends smoke alarms be installed on every level of your home.
