Smoke detector for high ceilings
Smoke detector for high ceilings
(OP)
Hello,
I have a query concerning installation of a smoke detector in area of 16' high ceilings. Would the same installation requirements be applicable as for regular 7' ceilings or are they required / preferred to be wall mount at lower heights to allow for accurate smoke detection?
Thank you.

I think the best thing to do is ask AHJ.
NFPA 72-2016 (alarm systems) is now out and for sale. I heard that supposedly a lot of major changes from 2013.
Good luck,
Dave
