Ideally, an apparatus should be installed
in every room containing a fuel burning
appliance. Additional apparatus may be
installed to ensure that adequate warning
is given for occupants in other rooms, by
locating apparatus in:
• Remote rooms in which the occupant(s)
spend considerable time whilst awake and
from which they may not be able hear an
alarm from apparatus in another part of
the premises, and
• Every sleeping room
However, if there is a fuel burning appliance
in more than one room and the number of
apparatus is limited, the following points
should be considered when deciding where
best to put the apparatus:
• Locate the apparatus in a room containing
a ueless or open-ued appliance, and
• Locate apparatus in a room where the
occupant(s) spend most time
• If the domestic premises is a bedsit (a
single room serving as both sitting and
bedroom) then the apparatus should be
put as far from the cooking appliances
as possible but near to where the person
sleeps
• If the appliance is in a room not normally
used (for example a boiler room), the
apparatus should be put just outside the
room so that the alarm may be heard
more easily.
