• Choosing smoke alarms that bear the label of a reputable testing agency
• Install smoke alarms outside on every level of your home or building including basements.
• Smoke alarms must be installed a minimum of 10 feet from cooking appliances to reduce false alarms
• Smoke alarms should be mounted high on ceilings, or when wall mounted should be no more than 12 inches from the ceiling.
