ABSTRACT OF DISCLOSURE. A fire detector of the kind comprosing a housing defining an ionization chamber, an electrode supported in the ionization chamber by means of a support member made of an electrically insulating material, and an electronic ciruit to apply a voltage between the housing and the electrode and to detect variations in the resulting electrical current flowing through the ionization chamber. In order to prevent leakage currents flowing between the electrode and the housing via the support member a heat generating component of the electronic circuit associated with the detector is mounted in a cavity in the support member to heat that part of the support member thereby to prevent the formation of moisture on that part.
