Experience has shown that all hostile fires in family living units generate
smoke to a greater or lesser extent. Experiments using typical fires in
family living units indicate that detectable quantities of smoke precede
detectable levels of heat in most cases. For these reasons, NFPA
standard 72 requires smoke detectors to be installed outside of each
sleeping area and on each additional story of the family unit.
The following information is for general guidance only and it is
recommended that NFPA standard 72 be consulted and that the smoke
detector manufacturer's literature be used for detailed installation
instructions.
It is recommended that additional smoke detectors beyond those required
be installed for increased protection. The added areas include: basement,
bedrooms, dining rooms, furnace room, utility room and hallways not
protected by the required detectors.

FIG. 2: In the family living units with more
than one sleeping area, a smoke detector
should be located to protect each
sleeping area.
FIG. 4: Smoke Detector mounting
- “Dead” Air Space. The smoke
from a fire generally rises to the
ceiling, spreads out across the
ceiling surface and begins to bank
down from the ceiling. The corner
where the ceiling and wall meet is
an air space into which the smoke
may have difficulty penetrating. In
most fires, this “dead” air space
measures about 4 in. (0.1m) along
the ceiling from the corner and
about 4 in. (0.1m) down the wall as
shown in Figure 4. Detectors should
not be placed in the “dead” air
space.
