@odiez1 Way to go overboard. There are so many chemicals in your house that are worse for you than a smoke alarm. Hmm.. die from smoke inhalation/fire or harmless smoke detectors.

I'm sorry, but I'm not putting an ionizing radiation (NUCLEAR) source in a room with myself or any of my kids. Our house meets the legal requirements, and that's it.
I think good habits and critical thinking about possible fire hazards will prevent fires, (ie not leaving a pile of oily rags in the garage to spontaneously com-bust, putting out candles when you go to bed...) And the extra gamma rays from Am241 (inside the smoke detector) should be as far away from you as possible.

Good tips. One up on that is that the 10 year replacement is just the bear minimum of what one should do. It's actually advised to replace them every 5 years.
Another thing to consider is that ionization technology is old, out of date and faulty. If you don't want your smoke alarms crying wolf every time you burn toast or take hot showers, skip the ionization and get some form of heat detection technology instead. It will still detect dangerous flaming fires, but without the false alarms.
