4. Installation places
Smoke detectors should be installed in accordance with the NFPA Standard
74 (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA
02169).
In principle it is advisable to install several smoke detectors in the building
and/or in the dwelling.
In any case at least one smoke detector should be installed in each floor of
buildings with more than one floor.
Only like that a punctual and thus effective warning is possible when a fire
begins.
In any case one smoke detector must be installed in the way from the
sleeping area to the exit (corridor and/or staircase).
Also take care that the smoke detector can be loudly heard through a closed
door from the sleeping room! (Otherwise you will not be waked up during a
fire alarm!).
