Choosing a Mounting Location
The detector is designed for use in a single residential unit only, such as a single
family home or apartment. It is not meant to be used in lobbies, hallways,
basements, or another apartment in multi-family buildings, unless there are
already working detectors in each family unit. Smoke detectors, placed in
common areas outside of the individual living unit, such as on porches or in
hallways, may not provide early warning to residents. In multi-family buildings,
each family living unit should set up its own detectors.
The detector is not meant to be used in non-residential buildings. Warehouses,
industrial or commercial buildings, and special purpose non-residential buildings
require special fire detection and alarm systems. This detector is not a suitable
substitute for complete fire detection systems for places where many people live
or work, such as hotels or motels. The same is true of dormitories, hospitals,
nursing homes or group homes of any kind, even if they were once single family
homes.
For complete coverage in residential units, it should be installed in all rooms,
halls, storage areas, basements and attics in each family living unit. Minimum
coverage is one detector on each floor and one in each sleeping area. Useful
tips are listed hereunder:
1. Install a detector in the hallway outside every separate bedroom area as
shown in FIGURE 1. Two detectors are required in homes with two
bedroom areas as shown in FIGURE 2.
2. Install a detector on every floor of a multi-floor home or apartment as shown
in FIGURE 3.
3. Install a minimum of two detectors in any household.
4. Install a detector inside every bedroom.
5. Install smoke detectors at both ends of a bedroom hallway if the hallway is
more than 40 feet (12 meters) long.
6. Install a detector inside every room where one sleeps with the door partly or
completely closed, since smoke could be blocked by the closed door and a
hallway alarm may not wake up the sleeper if the door is closed.
7. Install detectors as close to the center of the ceiling as possible. If this is
not practical, put the detector on the ceiling, no closer than 4 inches (10 cm)
from any wall or corner as shown in FIGURE 4.
