LYNX Touch Installation and Setup Guide- 2 -RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER PROTECTIONThe Following Recommendations for the Location of Fire and Burglary Detection Devices HelpProvide Proper Coverage for the Protected Premises.Recommendations for Smoke and Heat DetectorsWith regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to therecommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72noted below.• Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms andareas of the household as follows: For minimum protection a smoke detector should be installed outside of eachseparate sleeping area, and on each additional floor of a multi-floor family living unit, including basements. Theinstallation of smoke detectors in kitchens, attics (finished or unfinished), or in garages is not normallyrecommended.• For additional protection the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors in the living room,dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements andattached garages.In addition, we recommend the following:• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker sleeps.• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone sleeps with the door partly or completelyclosed. Smoke could be blocked by the closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway outside may not wake up thesleeper if the door is closed.• Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where electrical appliances (such as portable heaters, airconditioners or humidifiers) are used.• Install a smoke detector at both ends of a hallway if the hallway is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long.• Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is located, or in any room where alarm controlconnections to an AC source or phone lines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire within the room couldprevent the control from reporting a fire or an intrusion.THIS CONTROL COMPLIES WITH NFPA REQUIREMENTS FOR TEMPORAL PULSESOUNDING OF FIRE NOTIFICATION APPLIANCES.DININGKITCHEN BEDROOMBEDROOMBEDROOMBEDROOMLIVING ROOM BEDROOMBDRMDININGLIVING ROOMTV ROOM KITCHENBEDROOM BEDROOMTOBRLVNG RMBASEMENTKTCHN.

This would include any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-levelbuilding.• In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system. This will ensure that alarmsignals can be sent to the alarm monitoring station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarmsignals are normally sent over the phone lines, if connected to an alarm monitoring station).WWW.DIYALARMFORUM.COM
