Ionisation
Smoke Alarm with Hush
Manual
Model Q946
Ionisation smoke alarms are designed to detect invisible particles
(associated with fast flaming fires). Home fires develop in different ways
and are often unpredictable. For maximum protection against fast
flaming fires and slow smouldering fires, both ionisation and photoelectric
alarms should be installed.
