Selecting a Location
Smoke detectors should be installed in accordance with the NFPA Standard 74 (National Fire
Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02169). For complete coverage in
residential units, smoke detectors 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 and attics in each family living unit. Minimum coverage is one detector on each
floor and one in each sleeping area.

Install a smoke detector in the hallway outside every separate bedroom area, as
shown in Figure B ‐ 22. Two detectors are required in homes with two bedroom areas,
as shown in Figure B ‐ 23.

Install a smoke detector on every floor of a multi ‐ floor home or apartment, as shown
in Figure B ‐ 24.

Install a minimum of two detectors in any household.

Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom.

Install smoke detectors at both ends of a bedroom hallway if the hallway is more than
40 feet (12 meters) long.

Install a smoke 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.

Install basement detectors at the bottom of the basement stairwell.

Install second ‐ floor detectors at the top of the first ‐ to ‐ second floor stairwell.

Be sure no door or other obstruction blocks the path of smoke to the detector.

Install additional detectors in your living room, dining room, family room, attic,
utility and storage rooms.

Install smoke 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 B ‐ 25.
