Smoke or Heat Alarms?

Mornin' All,

I am familiar with open fires that burn logs or coal.  I am not so familiar with enclosed "log burners" or enclosed "multi-fuel stoves".


When using these is there a chance of some or fumes being created when using them that could trigger a smoke alarm, especially at the time of first lighting them?


I am about to plan a system for a holiday let cottage that has two log burners in  two separate rooms. We don't want false alarms as the detectors will be interlinked.


Smoke or heat types?

    Do a multi sensor combined heat and optical. They according to the manufacturers have an increased resistance to false alarms.


    What is the purpose of the heat detection part of the combined alarm please? How will that prevent false alarms?
