1. What is a heat alarm and how is it different from a smoke alarm?

A heat alarm is designed to detect rapid temperature increases rather than smoke. This makes it ideal for areas like kitchens, garages, and laundry rooms, where smoke or steam might trigger false alarms on traditional smoke detectors.

2. Why should I use a heat alarm in my kitchen or garage?

Kitchens often produce smoke or steam during regular cooking, which can lead to frequent false alarms from smoke detectors. A heat alarm avoids this problem by only responding to dangerous heat levels, ensuring more accurate detection and fewer disruptions.

3. Is this heat alarm certified for safety?

Yes. The alarm is fully certified to European safety standards, offering trusted
performance and reliability for fire detection.

4. How is the heat alarm powered?

This alarm is battery-operated, so there’s no need for wiring or access to an electrical
outlet. It’s perfect for any room, especially places that lack power connections.

5. Is it difficult to install?

Not at all. It’s designed for easy DIY installation and comes with step-by-step instructions. Most users can have it installed and running in just a few minutes.

6. How often do I need to change the batteries?

Long lasting batteries are included with the product. You’ll be alerted by a low battery
warning beep when it’s time for a replacement.

7. How loud is the alarm?

The alarm emits a loud 85 dB sound, ensuring you’re alerted immediately—even in noisy environments like kitchens or garages.

8. Does it have a test or mute feature?

Yes, it includes:

A Test Button to check functionality.
A Mute Function to temporarily silence the alarm in case of a false trigger or for
maintenance purposes.

9. Where should I install a heat alarm?

Ideal locations include:

Kitchens
Garages
Boiler rooms
Laundry rooms

Avoid installing it in bedrooms or hallways—use smoke alarms in those areas for best
protection.

10. Should I use both smoke and heat alarms in my home?

Absolutely. For complete fire protection, we recommend using heat alarms in high-risk areas (like kitchens) and smoke alarms in living areas and bedrooms. This combination offers a layered approach to fire safety.

11. Is this heat alarm suitable for South African homes?

Yes. South African homes often use gas stoves, electric appliances, and open-flame
heating, which can increase fire risk. This heat alarm is ideal for reducing false alarms while still providing critical early warning in these environments.

12. How do I maintain my heat alarm?

Test weekly using the test button.
Replace the battery annually or as soon as a low battery warning is heard.
Keep the alarm free of dust and debris for optimal performance.

13. How do I order and how fast is delivery?

You can order directly from our website, and we offer fast and reliable delivery across South Africa.
