NFPA Recommended Locations for Alarm
According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) the major threat from fire in a
dwelling unit occurs at night when everyone is asleep. The principal threat to persons in
sleeping areas comes from fires in the remainder of the house; therefore smoke alarms are
best located between the bedroom areas and the rest of the house.
Where NOT to install the Alarm
•
Directly above a sink, cooker, stove or oven
• Do not locate alarm within 5 feet (1.5 m) of any cooking appliance
• Next to a door or window that would be affected by drafts (extractor fan or air vent)
• Outside
• In or below a cupboard
• Where air flow would be obstructed by curtains or furniture
• Where dirt or dust could collect and block the sensor
• Where it could be knocked, damaged, or inadvertently removed
Do NOT INSTALL this alarm in a location where the normal ambient temperature is
below 40 F (4.4 C) or where it exceeds 100 F (37.8 C)
INSTALL this equipment in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 72.
Maintenance
Clean the alarm once a year. To clean the alarm, remove it from the mounting base. You can
clean the interior using compressed air or a vacuum cleaner. Blow or vacuum through the
openings around the perimeter of the alarm. The outside of the alarm can be wiped with a
damp cloth. After cleaning, test the alarm by pushing the Test button. If cleaning does not
restore the alarm to normal operation you need to replace the alarm.
WARNING: READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
• NFPA 72 states: Fire‐warning equipment for residential occupancies are capable of
protecting about 50% of the occupants in potentially fatal fires. Victims include the
elderly, children, and the physically or mentally impaired. Victims include any person
that cannot escape even when warned early enough that escape should be possible. For
these people, other strategies such as protection‐in‐place or assisted rescue or escape
would be necessary.
• Studies show that Smoke/Heat Alarms may not awaken all sleeping individuals. It is the
responsibility of individuals in the household that are capable of assisting others to
provide assistance to those who may not be awakened by the audible alarm or those
who may be incapable of safely evacuating the area unassisted.
• A battery‐powered alarm must have the specific battery type installed, be in good
condition, and be mounted properly.
• The use of alcohol or drugs may also impair one’s ability to hear the audible alarm. For
maximum protection, ensure that an audible alarm is installed on every floor of the
home.
• Smoke/Heat Alarms only provide protection to the residence if smoke actually reaches
the alarm. The Smoke/Heat Alarm is not a substitute for an insurance policy.
Home owners and renters should have adequate insurance to protect their properties.
Safety Tips
• Make a Family Escape Plan. Draw a map of your home showing all doors and windows.
Discuss the plan with everyone in the home.
• Know at least 2 ways out of every room, if possible. Make sure all doors that lead to the
outside of home open easily.
• Have an outside meeting place, like a light pole, mailbox, or tree a safe distance from the
residence where everyone meets.
• Practice your Family Escape Plan or “Fire Drill” at night and during the day at least twice a
year. Only practice when every member of the house can attend.
• Practice using different ways out, if possible.
• Teach your children how to escape on their own in case you cannot help them.
• Close doors behind you as you leave.
Family Escape Plan
According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) there often is very little
time between the detection of a fire and the time it becomes deadly. This interval can be
as little as 1 minute. Planning and practicing for fire conditions with a focus on rapid exit
from the residence are important! Fire drills should be held so that all family members
know the action to be taken.
If the Alarm Sounds
• Get out and stay out. Never go back inside for people or pets.
• If you have to escape through smoke, get low and go under the smoke.
• Call the fire department from outside your home.
