SumnerBoy: Not sure I would be too worried. If they went off I would be grabbing the kids and getting out of there.

 

 

 

It depends, as if it is burnt toast in the kitchen, you would want to know if it was just a false alarm. By the time an alarm goes off, it may just be very small, as can be put out with a fire extinguisher etc.

 

 

Or you could decide whether you want to tell the kids to stay and put it out while you go outside just in case, etc. There's lots of options...
