National Fire Protection Association's Smoke Detector Recommendations - Honeywell LYNX Touch User Manual

With regard to the number and placement of smoke and heat detectors, we subscribe to the
recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard
#72 noted below.
Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment
in all rooms and areas of the household. The equipment should be installed as follows: A
smoke detector installed outside of each separate sleeping area, in the immediate vicinity of
the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements and
excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics.
In addition, the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors in the living
room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage
rooms, basements and attached garages.
