NFPA 74 STANDARD FOR SMOKE DETECTOR LOCATION

The DF-72/EC should be installed in accordance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 74, which reads as follows:

2-1.1.1Smoke detectors shall be installed outside of each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfi nished attics*.

The provisions of 2-1.1.1 represent the minimum number of detectors required by this standard.It is recommended that the householder consider the use of additional smoke or heat detectors for increased protection for those areas separated by a door from areas protected by the required smoke detectors under 2-1.1.1 above. The recommended additional areas are: living room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, attic (fi nished or unfi nished), furnace room, utility room, basement, integral or attached garage and hallways not covered under 2- 1.1.1 above. However, the use of additional detectors remains the option of the householder.

2-1.1.2For family living units with one or more split levels (i.e., adjacent levels with less than one full story separation between levels), a smoke detector required by 2-1.1.1 shall suffi ce for an adjacent lower level, including basements.

FIRE PREVENTION AND ESCAPE

BE PREPARED. Perform fi re drills regularly. Use them to assure recognition of an alarm signal. For your protection, simulate different circumstances (smoke in hall, in living room, etc.). Then have everyone react to the situation.

Draw a fl oor plan and show two exits from each room. Frequently a knotted rope or ladder from a window will serve this purpose. It is important that children be instructed carefully, because they tend to hide in times of crisis.

It is imperative that one meeting place outside the home be established. You should insist that everyone meet there during an alarm. This will eliminate the tragedy of someone reentering the house for a missing member who is actually safe.

If you have children and/or invalids residing in your household, you can help your fi re department. Most fi re departments have window decals available for use in children’s or invalid’s bedrooms. Properly used, these decals will quickly identify sleeping quarters of these individuals and show the fi re department where to look fi rst for members of your household.

IMPORTANT !!!

Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fi ll an important need in portable wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed. The radios are required to comply with local rules and regulations as radio devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings. Changes or modifi cations to the device may void regulatory compliance. Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault. A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
