Smoke alarms should be regarded as a minimum level of equipment
sleeping rooms, children's rooms and corridors or passages used as escape routes;
one alarm should be fitted in the centre of each room, always on the ceiling (no wall
mounting) (Fig. 2). Select the highest point in the room for mounting, with a mini-
mum distance of 50 cm from any wall, furniture or lamps. In the case of sloping
ceilings with an angle of over 20°, detectors should be installed 0.5 - 1 m away from
the highest point. Your installation is optimised
all other rooms as well as on all landings. A smoke alarm is not normally required
in washrooms (bathroom, WC etc.) owing to the low fire risk in these rooms.
