Smoke Detectors for Minimum Protection
Smoke Detectors for Additional Protection
Heat-Activated Detectors
In addition, we recommend the following:
• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker
sleeps.
• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone
sleeps with the door partly or completely closed. Smoke could be
blocked by the closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway outside
may not wake up the sleeper if the door is closed.
• Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where electrical
appliances (such as portable heaters, air conditioners, or
humidifiers) are used.
• Install a smoke detector at both ends of a hallway if the hallway is
more than 40 feet (12 meters) long.
• Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is
located, or in any room where alarm control connections to an AC
source or phone lines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire
within the room could prevent the control from reporting a fire or
an intrusion.
