THE LATEST STANDARDS

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW


An update to the UL standard for smoke alarm devices is going into effect on June 30, 2024 for all manufacturers of smoke and combination smoke / carbon monoxide alarms. The new requirements have been developed in response to newer building materials in the home, and more open layouts burn hotter and faster, reducing escape times in the event of a fire emergency.
