bedrooms on more than one floor
In addition to smoke detectors outside of the sleeping areas, the device should be
installed on each additional story of the dwelling unit, including the basement.
These installations are shown in Figure 7. The living area smoke detector should be
installed in the living room or near the stairway to the upper level, or in both
locations. The basement smoke detector should be installed in close proximity to
the stairway leading to the floor above. Where installed on an open-joisted ceiling,
the detector should be placed on the bottom of the joists. The detector should be
positioned relative to the stairway so as to intercept smoke coming from a fire in
the basement before the smoke enters the stairway.
Smoke detectors are optional where a door is not provided between living room
and recreation room (Figure 8). The smoke from a fire generally rises to the ceiling,
spreads out across the ceiling surface, and begins to bank down from the ceiling.
The corner where the ceiling and wall meet is an air space into which the smoke
could have difficulty penetrating. In most fires, this dead air space measures about
0.1m (4in.) along the ceiling from the corner and about 0.1m (4in.) down the wall.
Detectors should not be placed in this dead air space, see Figure 9, Figure 10 and
Figure 11.
Where NOT to install the alarm:
• Directly above a sink, cooker, stove or oven
• Do not locate detector within 5 feet (1.5 m) of any cooking appliance
• Next to a door or window that would be affected by drafts i.e. extractor fan or
air vent
• Outside
• Do not install in any environment that does not comply with the detector's
environmental specifications
• In or below a cupboard
• Where air flow would be obstructed by curtains or furniture
• Where dirt or dust could collect and block the sensor
• Where it could be knocked, damaged, or inadvertently removed
This detector shall not be installed in location where the normal ambient
temperature is below 40°F (4.4°C) or where it exceeds 100°F (37.8°C).
THIS EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH NFPA 72:
NATIONAL FIRE ALARM AND SIGNALING CODE.
