Wall Mounting

If ceiling mounting is impractical, Smoke

Alarms may be mounted on a wall,

provided that:

a) the top of the detection element is

between 150mm (6") and 305mm (12")

below the ceiling (see; Figure 3a).

b) the bottom of the detection element

is above the level of any door openings;

Wall mounting should only be

considered where close spaced beams

or similar obstructions may preclude

ceiling mounting. It is considered to be

the responsibility of the installer/client to

determine if the presence of asbestos in

the ceiling material would make ceiling

mounting 'impractical'.

Figure 3a

On a Sloping Ceiling

With a sloping or peaked ceiling install a

Smoke Alarm within 610mm (24") of the

peak (measured vertically). If this height

is less than 610mm (24") the ceiling is

regarded as being flat (see Figure 4).

Locations to avoid

DON'T place Smoke Alarms in any of the

following areas:

• Bathrooms, kitchens, shower rooms,

garages or other rooms where the

Smoke Alarm may be triggered by

steam, condensation, normal smoke or

fumes. Keep at least 6 metres (20ft)

away from sources of normal smoke/

fumes.

• Locate away from very dusty or dirty areas

as dust build-up in the chamber can impair

performance. It can also block the insect

screen mesh and prevent smoke from

entering the smoke detector chamber.

• Do not locate in insect infested areas.

Small insects getting into the smoke

detector chamber can cause intermittent

alarms.

• Places where the normal temperature

can exceed 100°F (38.7°C) or be below

40°F (4.4°C) (e.g. attics, furnace rooms,

directly above ovens or kettles etc.) as

the steam could cause nuisance alarms.

• Near a decorative object, door, light

fitting, window moulding etc., that may

prevent smoke from entering the Alarm.

• Surfaces that are normally warmer or

colder than the rest of the room (e.g. attic

hatches). Temperature differences might

stop smoke from reaching the Alarm.

• Next to or directly above heaters or air

conditioning vents, windows, wall vents

etc. that can change the direction of

airflow.

• In very high or awkward areas (e.g. over

stairwells) where it may be difficult to

reach the Alarm (for testing, hushing or

battery replacement).

• Locate the Alarm at least 1m (39") from

dimmer controlled lights and wiring as

some dimmers can cause interference.

• Locate Alarm at least 1.5m (59") and

route wiring at least 1m away from

fluorescent light fittings as electrical

"noise" and/or flickering may affect

the unit.

3. Fire Safety Advice

When using household protective devices,

basic safety precautions should always be

followed, including those listed below

• Please read all instructions.

• Rehearse emergency escape plans so

everyone at home knows what to do in

case the alarm sounds.

• Use the Alarm Test Button to familiarize

your family with the Alarm sound and
