• In insect-infested areas.

• Smoke alarms should not be installed within 3 ft (.9m) of the fol-

lowing: the door to a kitchen, the door to a bathroom containing
a tub or shower, forced air supply ducts used for heating or cool-
ing, ceiling or whole house ventilating fans, or other high air flow
areas.

• Kitchens. Normal cooking may cause nuisance alarms. If a

kitchen alarm is desired, it should have an alarm silence feature
or be a photoelectric type.

• Near fluorescent lights.  Electronic “noise” may cause nuisance

alarms.

• Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless

the combination (alarm and guard) has been evaluated and
found suitable for that purpose.
