Planning / Installation
Only the use of smoke detectors in accordance with DIN EN 14604 is permitted. When
installing a smoke detector per room it is sufficient if this space not larger than 60 square
meters; in larger rooms more smoke detectors are required.
The minimum equipment in accordance with DIN 14676 smoke detectors are to install in
the bedroom and Children's rooms and in the hallways (escape routes).
An optimum is to have smoke detectors also in living and hobby rooms, heating- and
work rooms and attic.
In stairwells or rooms with a gallery is at least to install one smoke detector on the top of
the floor. Better, however, would be a smoke detector on each level. In the kitchen,
smoke detectors are to be installed when false alarms, e.g. by water vapor can be
excluded. For this reason also bathrooms must not be equipped with smoke detectors.
We recommend to install in all rooms a smoke detector (except kitchen and bathroom)
on every level.
Installation
Smoke detectors are always to be mounted on the ceiling in the center of the room, at
least 50 cm away from the wall or from home furnishings.
For special cases, such as L-shaped or divided spaces see the point “Mounting location”
above.
Important Security Note
If the alarm should be in another room except the room in which the detector is installed
as if the triggering alarm in the nursery takes place and that you also alert in the master
bedroom, a small alarm panel is recommended.
Operation of the smoke detector
False alarms may be triggered for example by welding, soldering or sawing. In addition,
general dust during construction, water vapor and cooking vapors, extreme
