Smoke detectors should be installed in accordance with the BS5839-6. These are Grade F1

Minimum coverage is one detector installed on each floor in the property and one in each
section of the property with adjacent bedrooms.
For added protection, install a separate smoke detector in each separate room and exit
way, except the kitchen and rooms which emit steam, for example bathrooms and wet
rooms, as shown below in fig I and II.
