At low levels people will suffer headaches and mild nausea. At higher levels unconsciousness, heart failure, an

SMOKE ALARMS MUST NOT BE USED WITH DETECTOR GUARDS UNLESS THE COMBINATION OF ALARM AND GUARD HAS BEEN EVALUATED AND FOUND SUITABLE FOR THAT PURPOSE. The ionization type alarms are generally more effective at detecting fast, flaming fires which consume combustible materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include flammable liquids or paper burning in a waste container. The photoelectric type alarms are generally more effective at detecting slow, smoldering fires which smold
