Additional Information
Smoke Detection - Where required by applicable laws, codes, or
standards for the specified occupancy, approved single and
multiple-station smoke alarms shall be installed as follows:
•
In all sleeping rooms with the exception: Smoke alarms shall
not be required in sleeping rooms in existing one and
two-family dwelling units.
•
Outside of each separate sleeping area, in immediate vicinity
of the sleeping rooms.

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, furnace room, utility room, and hallways not protected by
the required smoke alarms.
