Guidelines for Locating Smoke & CO Detectors
WWW.DIYALARMFORUM.COM
The following information is for general guidance only and it is recommended that local fire codes and regulations be consulted when
locating and installing smoke and CO alarms.
Smoke Detectors
Research indicates that all hostile fires in homes generate smoke to a greater or lesser extent. Detectable quantities of smoke precede
detectable levels of heat in most cases. Smoke alarms should be installed outside of each sleeping area and on each storey of the home.
DSC recommends that additional smoke alarms beyond those required for minimum protection be installed. Additional areas that
should be protected include: the basement; bedrooms, especially where smokers sleep; dining rooms; furnace and utility rooms; and
any hallways not protected by the required units.
On smooth ceilings, detectors may be spaced 9.1m (30 feet) apart as a guide. Other spacing may be required depending on ceiling
height, air movement, the presence of joists, uninsulated ceilings, etc. Consult National Fire Alarm Code NFPA 72, CAN/ULC-S55302 or other appropriate national standards for installation recommendations.
•Do not locate smoke detectors at the top of peaked or gabled ceilings; dead air space in these locations may prevent smoke detection.
•Avoid areas with turbulent air flow, such as near doors, fans or windows. Rapid air movement around the detector may prevent
smoke from entering the unit.
•Do not locate detectors in areas of high humidity.
•Do not locate detectors in areas where the temperature rises above 38
Smoke detectors should always be installed in USA in accordance with Chapter 11 of NFPA 72, the National Fire Alarm Code:
11.5.1.1. Where required by applicable laws, codes, or standards for a specific type of occupancy, approved single- and multiple-sta-
tion smoke alarms shall be installed as follows:
1.In all sleeping rooms and guest rooms.
2.Outside of each separate dwelling unit sleeping area, within 6.4 m (21 ft) of any door to a sleeping room, the distance measured
along a path of travel.
3.On every level of a dwelling unit, including basements.
4.On every level of a residential board and care occupancy (small facility), including basements and excluding crawl spaces and
unfinished attics.
5.In the living area(s) of a guest suite.
6.In the living area(s) of a residential board and care occupancy (small facility).
oC
(100oF) or falls below 5oC (41oF).
Figure 3a
Figure 3
Figure 1
Figure 2
CO Detectors
CO gas moves freely in the air. The human body is most vulnerable to the effects of CO gas during
sleeping hours. For maximum protection, a CO alarm should be located outside primary sleeping
areas or on each level of your home. Figure 5 indicates the suggested locations in the home. The
electronic sensor detects carbon monoxide, measures the concentration and sounds a loud alarm
before a potentially harmful level is reached.
Do NOT place the CO alarm in the following areas:
•Where the temperature may drop below -10ºC or exceed 40 ºC.
•Near paint thinner fumes.
•Within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of open flame appliances such as furnaces, stoves and fireplaces.
•In exhaust streams from gas engines, vents, flues or chimneys.
•Do not place in close proximity to an automobile exhaust pipe; this will damage the detector.

WARNING - READ CAREFULLY
Note to Installers
This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibi lity to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the
users of this system.
System Failures
This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, however, involving fire, burglary, or other types o f emergencies where it may
not provide protection. Any alarm system of any type may be compromis ed deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some but not all of these
reasons may be:
• Inadequate Installation
A security system must be installed pro perly in order to provide adequate protection. Every installa tion should be evaluated by a security professional to ensure that all acce ss
points and areas are covered. Locks and latches on windows and doors must be secure and operate as intended. Windows, doors, wa lls, ceilings and other building materials
must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide the level of protection expected. A reevaluation mu st be done during and after any construction activity. An evaluation
by the fire and/or police department is highly recommended if this service is avail able.
• Criminal Knowledge
This system contains security features which were known to be effective at the time of manufacture. It is possible for persons with criminal intent to develop techniques which
reduce the effectiveness of these features. It is important that a security system be reviewed periodically to ensure t hat its features remain effective and that it be updated or
replaced if it is found that it does not provide the protection expected.
• Access by Intruders
Intruders may enter through an unpr otected access point, circumvent a sensing device, evade detection by moving throu gh an area of insufficient coverage, disconnect a
warning device, or interfere with or prevent the proper operation of the system.
• Power Failure
Control units, intrusion detectors, smoke detectors and many other security devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If a device operates from batteries,
it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be charge d, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power,
any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. P ower interruptions of any length are often accom panied by voltage
fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a security system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to
ensure that the system operates as intended.
• Failure of Replaceable Batteries
This system’s wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device
environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected batt ery life.
While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing
and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.
• Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices
Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent
radio signal interference.
• System Users
A user may not be able to operate a panic o r emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physic al disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity
with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system
indicates an alarm.

• Smoke Detectors
Smoke detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert occupants of a fire for a number of reasons, some of which follow. The smoke detectors may have been
improperly installed or positioned. Smoke may not be able to reac h the smoke detectors, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed
doors. Smoke detectors may not detect smoke from fires on another level of the residence or building.
Every fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide
timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, impro per storage of flammable materials,
overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.
Even if the smoke detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.
• Motion Detectors
Motion detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as shown in their respective installation instructions. They cannot discriminate between intruders and
intended occupants. Motion detectors do not provide volumetric area pr otection. They have multiple beams of detection and motion can only be detected in unobstructed
areas covered by these beams. They cannot detect motion which occurs behind walls, ceilings, floor, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors or windows. Any type of
tampering whether intentional or unintentional such as masking, painting, or spraying of any material on the lenses, mirrors, windows or any other part of the detection system
will impair its proper operation.
Passive infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in temperature. However their ef fectiveness can be reduced when the ambient temperature rises near or above
body temperature or if there are intentional or unintentional sources of heat in or near the detection area. Some of these heat sources could be heaters, radiators, stoves,
barbeques, fireplaces, sunlight, steam vents, lighting and so on.
• Warning Devices
Warning devices such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people o r waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or d oor. If warning devices a re located
on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the o ccupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible warning devices may be inte rfered with by other
noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible warning devices, however loud, may not be heard by a
hearing-impaired person.
elephone Lines
• T
If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also an intruder may cut the telephone line or defeat its operation
by more sophisticated means which may be difficult to detect.
• Insufficient Time
There may be circumstances when the system wil l operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the
warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time to protect the occupants or their belongings.
• Component Failure
Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a componen t.
• Inadequate Testing
Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from opera ting as intended can be found by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested
weekly and immediately after a break-in, an att empted break-in, a fire, a storm, an earthquake, an accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises.
The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices t hat are part of the system.
•Security and Insurance
Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other
occupants to act prudently to preve nt or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency si tuation.

2.3.3 Wireless Device Placement Test
Perform wireless device placement testing on keypads, sirens, sensors and repeaters only.
•During placement test, the sensitivity of the wireless receiver is reduced significantly. This is done to ensure that, if consistent
good placement test results are generated with reduced sensitivity, the product should have more than adequate range when placement test exits and the sensitivity level returns to normal. During placement test, try to avoid tripping multiple devices at the same
time as this may cause collisions. A collision may cause a bad placement test result, despite having adequate coverage between the
receiver and the transmitter.
•During placement test, the wireless receiver will require 3 out of 4 wireless packets to be received before a good placement test
result is obtained. Outside of the placement test mode, one wireless packet received is enough to generate an alarm or trouble condition.
•This test is NOT required for wireless keys or panic pendants. Verify that wireless keys operate within the desired operating area
by arming/disarming the system.
•Test each wireless device a minimum of 5 times to ensure the location is good. Ideally all 5 attempts should provide a good placement test result.
•If a device tests bad, reposition it and test again. A slight change in placement, or the orientation of the transmitter, can cause significant differences in the signal strength and range of a wireless device.
•Avoid mounting wireless transmitters on metal door or window frames whenever possible.
Note: The indoor siren sounds during placement test, even if it is disabled in section [804][311]-[314] option 1. The outdoor siren
sounds during placement test only if section [804][311]-[314] option 1 is enabled.
