Ionization type smoke alarms use a very small amount of a
radioactive element in the sensing chamber to enable detection
of visible and invisible combustion products. The radioactive

adjustments or maintenance. This smoke alarm meets or exceeds
all government standards. It is manufactured and distributed
under license from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
