House fire are devastating to homeowners and businesses resulting in property damage which are expensive to fix. Death from house fire can occur when there is no safety guidelines in place or devices not installed such as the smoke alarms. House fires occurs commonly in the colder months due to heating appliances while kitchen fires are caused by cooking. By installing smoke alarms it reduce damages and even save lives.


Types of Smoke Alarms

There are two most used smoke alarms on the market, onGard got you covered with the following – (i) ionisation smoke alarm (ii) photoelectric smoke alarm.


  • Ionisation Smoke Alarm: This type of smoke alarm is highly sensitive to small particles and more likely to produce false alarm from cooking when it is installed in the kitchen. The device works well at detecting fast-flaming fires that produce visible smoke. Many house fires tend to be slow burning with smoke but no flame, the downside of this device is that the ionisation alarm aren’t as fast detecting these, by the time it does, it will be too late.



  • Photoelectric Smoke Alarm: Photoelectric version are not as nearly sensitive as the ionisation smoke alarm and it is better at detecting smouldering smokes. Before the smouldering smoke burst into flames, it alerts everyone in time to take action and safely evacuate the property and call the fire brigade. The great advantage about this type of smoke alarm is that you can install it in the kitchen without it giving off a false alarm. However dust and insects that enters the unit can trigger a false alarm, as a recommendation it is best to clean it occasionally.
