Installation Positioning

When choosing your installation location, make sure you can hear the alarm from all sleeping areas. If you install only one smoke detector in your home, install the detector as close to the bedrooms as possible, and not in a basement or furnace room.

1. Prioritize the installation of a detector in the bedroom and walkways. In a home with several bedrooms, install one detector in every bedroom.
2. Install a detector above the stairway and on every fioor of the house.
3. Smoke, heat and anything burning will spread horizontally after rising to the ceiling, so install the detector in the middle of the ceiling where possible. Ensure that the detector is installed at a minimum distance away from corners.
4. If a detector cannot be installed in the middle of a ceiling, install it at a distance of 20 inches (50 cm) away from the corners of the room.
5. If a detector is installed onto a wall, a distance of 4-12 inches (10-30 cm) should be kept below the ceiling.
6. If the length of a room or hall is beyond 30 feet (900 cm), several detectors should be installed in the same space.
7. When the wall or ceiling is angled, the alarm needs to be installed within 3 feet (90 cm) of the highest wall or ceiling point (measured horizontally) in the room.

WARNING!

1. THIS DETECTOR SHOULD BE INSTALLED BY A COMPETENT PERSON.
