If your alarm goes off while cooking, you have an ionization type of detector. It can detect products of combustion so when you cook, you can get false alarms. Use a photoelectric detector near cooking areas. A photoelectric requires visible smoke to activate, so unless you are a really bad cook, a photoelectric won't give you false alarms from cooking. There were also studies that claimed slow smoldering fires were not detected well by an ionization type of detector until too late. I am sure the technology improved in the years since, but why chance it? I would use an ionization detector near a shower if steam can get to the detector. Steam can cause a photoelectric to alarm. - Retired Firefighter.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, you can't control via the app but you can see if it is triggered by something. So, it's more useful in app when you away from home vs. at home with the alarm.
