Smoke detectors may not always activate and provide 
warning early enough. 

Smoke detectors only activate when 

enough smoke reaches the detector. If a fire starts in a 
chimney, wall, roof, on the other side of closed doors, or on a 
different level of the property, enough smoke may not reach 
the detector for it to alarm. 

Smoke detectors are a significant help in reducing loss, injury, 
and even death. However, no matter how good a detection 
device is, nothing works perfectly under every circumstance 
and we must warn you that you cannot expect a smoke 
detector to ensure that you will never suffer any damage or 
injury. 

Current studies have shown smoke detectors may not awaken 
all sleeping individuals. It is the responsibility of individuals in 
the household that are capable of assisting others to provide 
assistance to those who may not be awakened by the alarm 
sound, or to those who may be incapable of safely evacuating 
the area unassisted.
