United StatesStandards and installation requirements for fire detectors may vary by region. Prior to installation, we recommend that you read and understand the regulatory documents applicable in your region or contact a specialist.
Installation of a smoke detector at the highest point of the ceiling at a minimum distance of one meter from the source of lighting and the exhaust ventilation pipe is recommended. If ceiling beams run across the ceiling and protrude 30 cm from the ceiling level, then at least one detector should be placed between every pair of beams.
