VENTILATING WINDOWS WITHOUT<br />
FALSE ALARMS<br />
Sentrol recommends two methods for opening windows for ventilation without<br />
causing a false alarm.<br />
First, a small dot, either adhesive or painted, can be added to both the window<br />
frame and window jamb that marks the spot above which the window should not<br />
be opened. The user simply aligns the halves of the dot as shown below.<br />
Second, a window stop can be provided so that the window cannot pass the alarm<br />
point in normal usage. Drill a hole in the jamb for the stop. Use a nail or small<br />
dowel as the stop. The dowel or nail should protrude from the hole so it supports<br />
the opened window, as shown below.<br />
