Does anybody know if burning incense will set off my smoke detector?

Answer 1

It sets mine off...it's how I know what my kids are up to....

Answer 2

That depends on how good a smoke alarm U have.. Yes it should and if it doesnt , throw away your s/alarm and replace it. preferable a hard wired one in the appropriate place. I burn a lot of incense in my house , but where I burn it there is no s/alarm as they would be useless anyway.. Contact an electrician and have 1 or 2 installed where he recommends , then feel free 2 burn your incense wherever U like , just not directly below your s/alarm (s) hope this helps

Answer 3

yes it does if it is made fom carbionic materials based on the chemical chain cb1 to cb40+
you can easily find out if your incense is in this strategic framework by doing a molecular theoram test using a mass spectrometer.if it is within the range 0.5768 kilosprat to 1.857564 kilosprat it is stategicaly unstable.
Alternatively you can light the incense and hold it under the smoke detector. If you suffer a loud noise in your ears it is within the range to set of the smoke detector

Answer 4

some will go off quicker than others, and it depends on how close the smoke from the incense is to the detector

Answer 5

Probably not,, smoking cigarettes doesn't
