National Fire Protection Association Standards

This equipment should be installed in accordance with the National Fire Protec-

tion Association’s Standard 72 (National Fire Protection Association, Battery-

march Park, Quincy, MA 02269). 
For your information, the National Fire Protection Association’s Standard 72, 

2013 Edition, Section 29.5.1 covering required protection in One- and Two-Fami-

ly Dwelling Units, reads as follows:

29.5.1.1 Required Detection.

 Where required by other governing laws, codes, 

or standards for a specific type of occupancy, approved single- and multiple-

station smoke alarms shall be installed as follows:
(1)  In all sleeping rooms and guest rooms.

(2)  Outside each separate dwelling unit sleeping area, within 21 ft (6.4 m) of any  

      door to a sleeping room, with the distance measured along a path of travel.

(3)  On every level of the dwelling unit, including basements.

(4)  On every level of a residential board and care occupancy (small facility), 

       including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics.

(5)  In the living area(s) of a guest suite.

(6)  In the living areas(s) of a residential board and care occupancy (small facility).

A.29.5.1 (NFPA 72 2013 Edition) “Are More Smoke Detectors Desirable?  

The required number of smoke detectors might not provide reliable early 

warning protection for those areas separated by a door from the areas protected 

by the required smoke detectors.  For this reason, it is recommended that the 

householder consider the use of additional smoke detectors for those areas for 

increased protection.  The additional areas include the basement, bedrooms, 

dining room, furnace room, utility room, and hallways not protected by the 

required smoke detectors.  The installation of smoke detectors in kitchens, 

attics (finished or unfinished), or garages is not normally recommended as 

these locations occasionally experience conditions that can result in improper 

operation.”

Note: 

Applicable building codes or other local laws may require the installation 

of additional fire alarms in addition to the minimum recommended by the NFPA. 

The Bed Shaker 520 offers additional help 

waking the elderly, children, people with hearing 

impairments, and heavy sleepers.

This unit is to be installed in a room 

occupied for sleeping.
