2.2 Rooms where no smoke alarm detector should be installed
Rooms which have a high air humidity - for example in the bathroom.
In garages or kitchens. A smoke alarm detector in the kitchen should only be installed, if the
distance to the stove is at least 4m.
Smoke alarm detectors should not be installed close to heaters, heating-, cooling- and
ventilation-shafts. Also, they may not be mounted on open fires or fireplaces.
In very dusty rooms.
With A-shaped roofs the smoke alarm detectors may not be mounted at the highest point.
Rooms having a room temperature of below 5°C or above 45°C.
In caravan or similar rooms. In these living areas, the attachment to the inside of parts are
advised. The air in the upper part of these areas as well as the ceiling is strongly warmed up
by intense solar irradiation. This can result that the strongly warmed up air keeps the smoke
from reaching to the smoke alarm detector.
