TruWatch Smoke Alarms

Most homes have smoke alarms that utilize ionization technology to detect the presence of fire. Tests continually show that ionization technology is very slow to detect a smoldering type of fire and often will not alarm at all, in time for safe escape. The technology used in our new Special Optics detectors have proven to detect a smoldering fire much faster, PLUS they actually “see” the smoke, virtually eliminating false alarms.

▪ State-of-the-art technology and design based on over 30 years of research and development. All alarms are
produced in a world class ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 facility which demonstrates robust systems
for quality, environmental management and health & safety.
▪ Exclusive On-Guard™ feature detects different types of fires and automatically adjusts the sensitivity accordingly,
giving you more time to escape, without the possibility of false alarms.
▪ Powered by replaceable long-life lithium batteries, independently tested to last up to 10 years, greatly reducing
maintenance costs and increasing the longevity of the detector.
▪ Built with Hi-Fire™ commercial grade plastics to withstand higher temperatures and military specification
components insure that the detector will perform accurately over time.
▪ The patented computerized self-diagnostic system constantly monitors all of the functions.
▪ The automatic drift compensation module adjusts for light, dust, and humidity to keep the alarm within proper
sensitivity levels, greatly reducing cleaning.
▪ All electronics are soldered and controlled by microprocessors that distinguish between environmental artifacts
and real smoke, which reduces false warnings significantly. Piezo is silicone sealed in place.
▪ The removable chamber creates easy access to the optical eye, making it simple to clean and restore the alarm’s
accuracy. The chamber can be replaced in the field, if needed.
▪ The Special Optics smoke alarm carries a 10-year limited warranty.
▪ 100S Series has Mesh network interconnectability – one goes off, all go off and at an extended range.
▪ Brand new 2020 smoke sensing technology and design:- 1st alarm to meet UL 217 8th edition
which contains 250 technical updates.
▪ Only manufacturer to never have a smoke alarm recalled. Meets both UL and ETL standards.
▪ Made in Ireland.

DID YOU KNOW
In 2007-2011, smoke alarms sounded in half of the home fires reported to U.S. fire departments.  In addition, three of every five home fire deaths resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms. Source: NFPA
