Smoke Detectors for Minimum Protection
Smoke Detectors for Additional Protection
Heat-Activated Detectors
With regard to the number and placement of
smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the
recommendations contained in the National
Fire Protection Association's Standard #74
noted below.
Early warning fire detection is best achieved
by the installation of fire detection equipment
in all rooms and areas of the household as
follows: A smoke detector installed outside
of each separate sleeping area, in the
immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on
each additional story of the family living unit,
including basements and excluding crawl
spaces and unfinished attics.
In addition, it is recommended that the
householder consider the use of heat or
smoke detectors in the living room, dining
room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic,
furnace room, utility and storage rooms,
basements and attached garages.
