How do Combined Alarms Work

Combined alarms with multiple sensors utilise the results of the heat and optical sensors and uses the combined data to give earliest fire protection while giving full protection against false alarms.

Where Multi-Sensor Alarms can be Situated

Combined alarms with multiple sensors can be situated on the first floor landing, in living rooms and bedrooms and in the ground floor hallway. Because they monitor 2 different by-products of fire their response to all types of fire is significantly improved over single sensor alarms.
