3.12.2. Installing the Smoke Detector
The Smoke Detector is designed for residential zones only. It can be used in a single family
home or in apartment buildings. In multi-family buildings, each apartment needs to install its
own Smoke Detector.
WARNING! Do not use this Smoke Detector device in non-residential
buildings. Warehouses, industrial buildings, commercial buildings, etc.,
require special fire detection and alarm systems.
This device is not a substitute for a complete fire detection system for sites
where many people live or work (i.e. hotels, motels, dormitories, hospitals,
nursing homes and group homes) even if they once were single family
homes.
See NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) standard 101 (Life Safety
Code) and NFPA standard 72 (Fire Alarm and Signaling Code) for fire alarm
requirements.
3.12.2.1. Smoke Detector Positioning Recommendations
For complete coverage in residential units, Smoke Detectors should be installed in all
rooms, halls, storage areas, basements, and attics.
WARNING! Smoke Detectors installed in common areas such as porches
or outside hallways may not provide sufficient early warning for residents.
For minimum coverage install one alarm on each floor and one in each bedroom zone.
Smoke Detectors should be installed in accordance with the NFPA (National Fire
Protection Association) standard 72.
For optimal detection, consider these factors when selecting a mounting position:
Installation of the We.R™ System

Install a Smoke Detector on every floor of a multi-floor house as shown in
Figure 129 below.
WARNING! Make sure doors or other barriers do not block the path of
smoke to the Smoke Detectors.
Figure 129: Smoke Detectors in Multi-floor House
Install Smoke Detectors at both ends of a bedroom hallway if the hallway is
longer than 12 meters (40 feet).
Install basement Smoke Detectors at the bottom of the stairway as shown in
Figure 129 above.
Install the Smoke Detectors as close to the center of the ceiling as possible. If
this is not practical, install the Smoke Detector on the ceiling no less than 10
cm (4 inches) away from any wall or corner.
If ceiling mounting is not possible and wall mounting is allowed by your local
and state codes, mount the Smoke Detectors on a wall 10 to 15 cm (4 to 6
inches) from the ceiling.
Installation of the We.R™ System
We.R™ System User Guide

In rooms with sloped, peaked, or gabled ceilings, mount the Smoke
Detectors 90 cm (3 feet) measured horizontally from the highest point of the
ceiling.
Nuisance alarms occur if Smoke Detectors are installed where they do not
work properly. To avoid nuisance alarms, do not install alarms in the following
locations:
a) Areas where combustion particles are present (i.e. kitchens with few
windows or poor ventilation, garages where there may be vehicle
exhaust), or near heaters, hot water boilers, etc.
b) Less than 6 meters (20 feet) from places where combustion particles are
present. If such distance is not available (e.g., in mobile homes), install
the alarm as far away from the combustion particles as possible,
preferably on the wall. Provide good ventilation in such places.
c) Damp or humid areas. Moisture can enter the detection chamber. Upon
cooling, the developed water drops may cause nuisance alarms. Install
Smoke Detectors at least 3 meters (10 feet) away from bathrooms.
d) Very cold or very hot areas, including unheated buildings and outdoor
rooms. If the temperature goes above or below the operating range of
the Smoke Detector, the device will not work properly.
e) Very dusty or dirty areas. Dirt and dust can build up in the Smoke
Detector’s chamber, making it over-sensitive. In addition, dust or dirt
can block openings to the chamber and keep the Smoke Detector from
sensing smoke.
f) Drafty areas and areas near fresh air vents, air conditioners, heaters or
fans. These can drive smoke away from smoke alarms.
g) Dead air spaces near the top of a peaked roof or in the corners formed
by ceilings and walls. Dead air can prevent smoke from reaching the
Smoke Detector.
h) In insect-infested areas. If insects enter the Smoke Detector’s chamber,
they may cause a nuisance alarm.
