its one of those ones installed by the fire service and they are way too sensetive. it goes off when there isnt any smoke around as i cook (no i dont burn the food) i have another battery operated one that works wonders and isnt too sensetive. now understanding that these fire alarms carry alpha particles i cant take it to peices despite the penetration power of the radiation but is there a way i can make it less sensetive or completely deactivate it?i was thinking of putting paper or something over it to stop the smoke getting in but will it work?
No you can only use a fire alarm once and if you use it incorrectly you failed.
use 'hot' pvc glue hot cement is not actually fire hot, but it reacts with the pipe and melts the pipe together so although it won't be water proof it should stay together if you glue and hold em together long enough for it to dry. Why not just get the right fittings so they secure properly? They have fittings for anything you want to do.
No silly. Freedom fighters use freedom hoses. freedom extinguishers are just kept on wall brackets for use in an emergency.
