I have a problem with an EI44 heat alarm in the kitchen, which goes off
when the gas hob is on. It's a small kitchen, and it's mounted at about
the maximum distance from the hob.
The best solution would be to replace it with an alarm that requires
*both* heat and smoke before it sounds.
Anybody have a suggestion, please?
I very much doubt if this would comply with fire regulations.Â* I am
sure an alarm has to be triggered by presence of smoke (with heat
alarms possibly optional) and introducing a two-stage trigger would
not be permitted.
You could locate the smoke alarm just outside the kitchen, and the heat
alarm in it such that either could raise an alarm.
There is a smoke alarm on the landing outside the kitchen.
