"People are usually approached by the salesperson on the retext that the will 'v.e - Vr stration on how to prevent fires in the home," says Mr. Drea. "It usually ends up with the salesperson showing tragic pictures of grief- stricken families suf- fering the loss of loved ones after a fire. At that point some consumers are willing to buy almost anything to prevent the same thing happening to them." "In many cases heat detectors are being promoted . by these salespeople as complete fire protection systems for the home," says Mr. Drea. "Heat detectors are not adequate sub- stitutes for smoke detectors as early warning systems." Heat detectors react to heat rather than smoke and thereforeusually take longer to activate. A person could be over- come by smoke before a heat detector sounds the alert. The ministry of con- sumer and commercial relations has produced an information sheet about srnoke detectors, their installation, operation and maintenance.
