Smoke alarms are great in properties, so why would you need a domestic heat detector too? Domestic heat detectors are best suited to large domestic properties where dust, fumes and moisture can cause nuisance to smoke alarms. A heat detector is best placed in a laundry room, boiler room, kitchen, loft or garage within large domestic properties.
That said, there are British Standards that recommend the best locations for heat detectors in large domestic properties to be placed. For example, it is recommended that the domestic heat detector is installed on the ceiling as central in the room as possible. The domestic heat detector should also be sited at least 300mm from walls and light fittings. This ensures that any dead space where the airflow is blocked would be avoided.
It is also recommended by the British Standards that the heat detector in your large domestic property is installed within 3m of every escape door or bedroom. This will help to ensure audibility. It will enable everyone in the large domestic property to hear the heat detector if it is triggered. In addition, it is recommended that domestic heat detectors are positioned between high-risk rooms and bedrooms. If you have peaked or sloped ceilings in your home, there are additional recommendations. You need to make sure there is a maximum of 150mm vertically down from the ceiling to the floor.
