NZ smoke alarm
What are the different types of smoke alarms in NZ?
There are two types of smoke sensor technology: photoelectric smoke alarms and heat alarms. They work differently, so for best protection we recommend you have both types in your home. If you can’t have both, go for a photoelectric smoke alarm as they are better at detecting different kinds of fire.
