• HEAT ALARMS
• OPTICAL SMOKE ALARMS are suitable for sensing smouldering fires in escape routes, lounges and bedrooms which may contain furniture, bedding and clothes.
• HEAT ALARMS are most suitable for kitchens, boiler rooms, workshops and garages where dust, dirt and moisture would contribute to nuisance alarms.
• NOTE: Heat alarms should not be used in escape routes and it is recommended they are interlinked to smoke alarms. Do not install heat alarms on walls or in bedrooms, nurseries, playrooms or areas where the elderly and disabled may spend long periods of time.
