• Kitchens. Normal cooking may cause nuisance alarms. If a kitch-
en alarm is desired, it should have an alarm silence feature or be
a photoelectric type.
• Near fluorescent lights. Electronic “noise” may cause nuisance
alarms.
• Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless
the combination (alarm and guard) has been evaluated and
found suitable for that purpose.
