Part of this effectiveness lies in the fact that most lire fatalities occur at nightý when theý occupants are asleep. Where smoke detectors have been installed and prop- erly maintained they, were foundta .be D9 percent re- liable and effective in arous- ing occupants withîn minutes. In fact, the Ontario, building code requires the installation of smoke. detectars in al new homes begun after January 1, 1976,.and wil soon require their installa- tion in all new apartment buildings. However, a smnall number offailures do.occur,, usually, because ,the -units were not r properly installed or main.- tained. lt's a matter of cora- mon sense - once a smoke detector leaves the dealer's Il sheif, the responsibiity is stili in the hands of the,con- sumer. l1onization and .Photaelectric There are twa types of smok deectrs aailblefor. home use - ionizatian and photoelectric'- w'ith prices ranging fromf $20 ta $40 for most popular brands. loniza- tion devices contain a very smnall arniunt of radioactive, material that "ionizes", the. air inside a chamrber, ci'at- ing a weak electrical current. When smoke particles 1.or other products-of-combus- tion enter 'the, chamber'they impede, the ý flow of current, which sets off an alarm. The radiation given off by ioniza- tion units is, less thanf that fro m a luminous wristwatch or colour televisiori. Photoelectric smnoke de- tectors' consist of.,a light source and.,a &liglit-sensitive photoceil positioned inside a chamber. When smoke enters, itscatters the liglit beam and again sets off an alarm. .When. activated, both types of smoke -fietector emit a Sound loud eênough ta 'wake pe 'ople -in, nearby raoms. In more sophisticated smoke detection, systems, 'a number- of interconnected units 'wiil al, sound when any one detects smoke. And ini ,battery-operateid units, another signal is set off when battery strength is low..This is usuàlly bath ýan, audible , and -visual signal,. either, a <warning'light or a flag -that paps out. Because they operate on differe'nt.,principles, ioniza- tion'and photoelectric smoke detectors. also react differ- ently to various fire situa- tions. lonizatian devices are generally effective in detect- ing fast-burning fires before smoke is'visible, while tests have . shown, photoelectric devices' ta -be ,somewhat fasterinresponding ta smoky or, smouldering 'fires. AI- though sorne authorities'sug- gest that smouldering fires are more cammon,ý many homeowners prefer ta instail bath types and ensure greater protection and reli- ability. In either case, units shouid be ULC, approved. Ontario ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD IN THE MATTER OF -Section 15 of The Planning Act, -(R.S.O. 1970, c. 349).

JULY 30& 31 Bigthe. Wholo fuI to Seo Whitby Business & Services on Dlsplmy Added Entertinmnent ADMISSION FREE Smoke detectors may be battery-»operated, plugged in- to the wall outiet or con- nected inito the house wiring. Battery units are the easiest to, install since their place- ment Js' not affected by the location of electrical outiets or house wiring. They ýare usually supplied with a bat- tery that, lasts -about' one year. Plug-in units have' the disadvantage, of a fixe d- length, cord that limits, their* placement., They are 'also, easily unplugged unless spe- cial precautions are taken and will not operate if a fuse blow's. On the. other hand, they eliminate, the incon- venience of battery replace- ment. Ho. ïuse-wired syst'ems over- came these ýdisadvantages; through direct wiring ta, the, ,electrical system. As well, a numfber of units nmay be inter- cannected. However, a blowni fuewil also, render these systemns inoperative. Power failures because of the outbreak of fire are un- likely., However, if, you live in 'a *rural area. prone ta power failures,ý you might want to consider the advan- tages of battery-operated de- vrices. Installation and maintenance- Most people prefer to in- stali batter'y-operated' and plug-in units themselves, fol-' lowing the m.anufacturer's instructions. House-wired systems, thougli, should al-, ways- be installed by a quali- fied electrician. In general, smoke detec- tors are most effective when installed- on or near a ceiling. mhrost on experts reom end t t epert ear te bedrooîn or betedned-th beroos ndorlivin qarers Where anddiinluisare avail aleteymaaltsoabe positioned nhey a hehad of thestirs toeacheh flooo. heck wtith Wyour lo fre dearteft or laie o ouar speci for ned. o Smak seifd eetasdo requie eboredoant nancree, b teshuldte nachekebutnd eaneoud egu larly.
