Buying smoke alarms can be confusing given the range of options currently available and the general lack of standardized independent testing for manufacturers. Some areas have specific local codes, so it is best to consult a fire safety specialist at your local fire department first. The basics are known: ionization detectors are best for fast, smoldering fires, but bad for smoking, smoldering fires. Photovoltaic, like this brand ANKA, is best for smoking, smoldering fires, but bad for fast, blazing fires. As part of the updated UL standard, manufacturers will reportedly no longer be able to produce single-sensor (photoelectric only or ionization only) smoke detectors. Until then, installing a combination of both types will likely maximize the potential for warning residents of an apartment fire. What I love about this ANKA device is the inclusion of carbon monoxide detection (a completely different topic than fire detection, but very important safety). performance), UL certification, internal self-testing and ten years of lithium battery operation, ensuring both ease of installation (no hardwiring) and, as the detectors have a finite lifetime beyond which they can no longer warn, signals the need to replace the device. They also have a not unattractive low profile.
