Edwards Mechanical Heat Detectors
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Edwards has recalled mechanical heat detectors that can fail to activate when temperatures rise, preventing them from alerting occupants to a fire. These devices are used indoors as part of professionally installed fire detection systems in homes and businesses, typically in kitchens, attics, garages, and other locations like elevator shafts. The recalled heat detectors sense elevated temperatures and trigger fire alarms or security panels rather than detecting smoke or producing audible alerts. The recalled models are labeled "135F" and include various model numbers from Edwards, Interlogix, Honeywell Security, and Mirtone.
Consumers who have these heat detectors installed in life-safety applications permitted by code or in residential attics or garages should immediately contact a fire or security alarm professional to have the units replaced and reinstalled at no cost.
