RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER PROTECTION
The Following Recommendations for the Location of Fire and Burglary Detection Devices Help
Provide Proper Coverage for the Protected Premises.
Recommendations For Smoke And Heat Detectors
With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations contained in the
National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72 noted below.
Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the
household as follows: For minimum protection a smoke detector should be installed outside of each separate sleeping area, and on
each additional floor of a multi-floor family living unit, including basements.
The installation of smoke detectors in kitchens, attics
(finished or unfinished), or in garages is not normally recommended.
For additional protection the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors in the living room, dining room,
bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements and attached garages.
In addition, we recommend the following:
• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker sleeps.
• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone sleeps with the door partly or completely closed. Smoke could
be blocked by the closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway outside may not wake up the sleeper if the door is closed.

• Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where
electrical appliances (such as portable heaters, air
conditioners or humidifiers) are used.
• Install a smoke detector at both ends of a hallway if
the hallway is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long.
• Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm
control is located, or in any room where alarm
control connections to an AC source or phone lines
are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire
within the room could prevent the control from
reporting a fire or an intrusion.
