  • Page 4: Application And Positioning

    FIREANGEL APPLICATION AND POSITIONING The minimum recommended application is one FireAngel to cover each floor and/or escape routes from individual sleeping areas. For comprehensive coverage we recommend one per room with the exception of bathrooms, shower-rooms and kitchens. The moist environments in bathrooms and shower-rooms are not suitable for Smoke Alarms and kitchens should be protected with self-contained Heat Alarms, as the combustion particles from cooking in kitchens will result in false alarms if Smoke Alarms are used.

    WHAT ARE THE LIMITATIONS OF MY SMOKE ALARM? Your FireAngel is designed to alert you by sounding an alarm when it senses smoke, i.e. it can only sense smoke and alert you if smoke reaches it! If a fire develops in an area remote from the location of the FireAngel such as another room or another floor, smoke may not reach the FireAngel in sufficient time or quantity to sense and alert you to the danger.
