Overview
The OSFM certification is a state-level product listing issued by the California Office of the State Fire Marshal. All smoke alarms sold in California must hold this listing. California enforces some of the strictest fire safety product regulations in the US, and this certification operates independently from the federal ETL/UL system — it is a mandatory market-access requirement specific to California.
