9. KIDDE RECOMMENDATIONS
Smoke alarms shall be installed outside each separate sleeping area in the immediate
vicinity of the sleeping rooms and on each additional story of the family living unit,
including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics. In new
construction, a smoke alarm also shall be installed in each sleeping room.
Smoke Detection - Are More Smoke Alarms Desirable? The required number of smoke
alarms might not provide reliable early warning protection for those areas separated
by a door from the areas protected by the required smoke alarms. For this reason, it
is recommended that the householder consider the use of additional smoke alarms for
those areas for increased protection.The additional areas include the basement,
bedrooms, dining room, utility room, and hallways not protected by the required
smoke alarms.The installation of the smoke alarms in the kitchen, attic (finished or
unfinished), or garage is normally not recommended, as these locations occasionally
experience conditions that can result in improper operation.
10. SERVICE AND WARRANTY

sensing chamber to enable detection of visible and invisible combustion products.
The radioactive element is safely contained in the chamber and requires no adjustments
or maintenance. This smoke alarm meets or exceeds all government standards.
