Smoke Detector for Hearing Impaired | | Published by: cfz 2010-03-10 |
Where can I find a smoke detector for the hearing impaired, where the
alarm freequency is lower than a normal smoke alarm? My mother does
not here high frequencies, which is common among the elderly.
Hello Mschwab and thanks for your question.
Loudenlow, inspired by a popular “Dear Abby” letter calling for better
smoke alarms for seniors, designed this product for people with high
frequency or high pitch hearing loss. It provides a loud, low pitch
audible alarm which is easier for many people to hear.
