Sloped Ceiling Installation:

The following information is from the National Fire Protection

Association and is listed in Fire Code 72.

Install Smoke Alarms on sloped, peaked or cathedral ceilings at,

or within 3 ft (0.9m) of the highest point (measured horizontally).

NFPA 72 states “Smoke alarms in rooms with ceiling slopes

greater than 1 ft to 8 ft (.3 m-2.4 m) horizontally shall be located

on the high side of the room”.

NFPA 72 states “A row of alarms shall be spaced and located

within 3 ft (0.9 m) of the peak of the ceiling measured

horizontally” (see figure 2).

Mobile Homes:

Modern mobile homes have been designed and built to be

energy efficient. Install Smoke/CO alarms as recommended

above (refer to Recommended Installation Instructions and figure

1). In older mobile homes that are not well insulated, extreme

heat or cold can be transferred from the outside to the inside

through poorly insulated walls and roof. This may cause a

thermal barrier, which can prevent smoke from reaching an alarm

mounted on the ceiling. In such mobile homes install your

Smoke/CO Alarm on an inside wall with the top edge of the

alarm at a minimum of 4 inches (10cm) and a maximum of 12

inches (30.5cm) below the ceiling (see figure 2). If you are not

sure about the insulation in your mobile home, or if you notice

that the outer walls and ceiling are either hot or cold, install your

alarm on an inside wall ONLY!
