Abstract
[ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH] Detectors placed in the kitchen and 2nd floor hallway of a steel reinforced fire resistant building were continuously monitored. Temperature and humidity were recorded. Output varied according to relative humidity changes in a one day cycle. There was no correlation between output and absolute humidity and temperature but there was a positive correlation with relative humidity.
