Why the need for UL 7th edition smoke alarms to distinguish between cooking smoke and actual fires? According to research, consumers actually disable smoke alarms due to nuisance alarms from cooking or steam, leading to serious fire safety vulnerabilities. Compliant sensors, like those from TrueAlarm, are designed for better fire type recognition and fewer nuisance alarms. Browse the lineup at https://ow.ly/VTcl50SFK9G

Modern furniture, bedding, carpets, and packaging – what do they all have in common? They are typically made in part with polyurethane foam, which when ignited, will burn hotter and faster than materials of the past. That’s also a big reason Underwriters Laboratory has raised the bar on their #smokealarm standards. The 268 7th edition now requires units to pass tests related to both smoldering and flaming polyurethane foam.

Did you know the technology for the first smoke detector was discovered by accident? Here’s the story from the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission: https://ow.ly/7rHH50SnsUV “In the late 1930s, a Swiss physicist was working on a sensor for detecting poison gas. Walter Jaeger's device failed to register small amounts of gas. Frustrated, he lit a cigarette—and the smoke moved the meter on his gadget. Jaeger's experiment helped pave the way for today’s smoke detector.”

Are your building’s smoke sensors compatible with the new UL 7th edition changes taking effect in June? While you do not have to upgrade earlier units, any replacements going forward should be listed as #UL 7th edition. You can always rely on Simplex TrueAlarm sensors, which can more accurately distinguish between actual fires – whether fast-flaming or smoldering – and common nuisance alarm-generating conditions such as burning food or steam: https://ow.ly/8T8Y50SlKUz #firedetection
