Others are caused by carelessness or safety hazards. Smoke may not reach the smoke alarm QUICKLY ENOUGH to ensure safe escape. • Smoke alarms have limitations. This smoke alarm is not foolproof and is not warranted to protect lives or property from fire. Smoke alarms are not a substitute for insurance. Homeowners and renters should insure their lives and property. In addition, it is possible for the smoke alarm to fail at any time. For this reason, you must test the smoke alarm weekly and replace every 10 years. SMOKE ALARM PLACEMENT Invensys Controls Americas recommends complete coverage protection achieved by installing a smoke alarm in every room of your home. The National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) minimum requirement, as stated in Standard 72, Chapter 2, reads as follows: “2-2.1.1.1 Smoke detectors shall be 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 new construction a smoke detector also shall be installed in each sleeping room.” Chapter 2 also reads as follows: “2-2.2.1 In new construction, where more than one smoke detector is required by 2-2.1, they shall be so arranged that operation of any smoke detector shall cause the alarm in all smoke detectors within the KITCHENDINING ROOM BEDROOM BEDROOM BEDROOMLIVING ROOM dwelling to sound.” The NFPA, 1993 Edition, Appendix A further states: “The required number of smoke detectors may not provide reliable early warning protection for those areas separated by a door from the areas protected by the required smoke detectors. For BEDROOM BEDROOM LIVING ROOM DINING HALL ROOM BASEMENT this reason, it is recommend ed that the householder consider the use of additional smoke detectors for those areas for increased protec tion. The additional areas include: basement, bed TV ROOM DINING ROOM KITCHEN BEDROOM BEDROOM BEDROOM LIVING ROOM rooms, dining room, furnace room, utility room, and hallways not protected by the required smoke detectors.” Also, as required by the California State Fire Marshal: “Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the house 2 hold as follows: A smoke detector installed in each separate sleeping area (in the vicinity, but outside the bedrooms), and heat or smoke detectors in the living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, hallways, attics, furnace rooms, closets, utility and storage rooms, basements and attached garages.” FOR BEST PROTECTION, WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU INSTALL A SMOKE ALARM IN EVERY ROOM. In addition, we recommend that all smoke alarms be interconnected.
