Installation guidelines
Smoke detectors must be installed according to the European
standard CE EN 14604 . For a complete coverage of your home, the
detectors must be installed in every room, storage area, cellar, attic
and corridor . The minimum number of detectors to be installed is
one on each floor, one in every bedroom and one in the attic .
Useful indications
- Install one detector in every corridor next a bedroom room, as
shown in figure 1 . In homes with two bedrooms, it is necessary to
install two detectors, as shown in figure 2 .
- If your house or apartment has several floors, install a detector on
each floor, as shown in figure 3 .
Optimal installation
We recommend a complete coverage and the use of additional
smoke detectors .
- Install a minimum of two smoke detectors for any type of home
- Install a detector in every bedroom
- Install a smoke detector at each end of a corridor giving access to
bedrooms, if this corridor is more than 12-meter long
- Install a detector in every room with a door that can be used as a
bedroom: smoke might be blocked by the door and the siren in the
corridor might not be loud enough to wake the person up if the
door is closed .
