For those in North Carolina, where do I find the details about adding smoke detectors inside and outside bedrooms?
I think it's in the NC Fire Code somewhere, but not sure.
I have a situation where there is a bedroom addition being built on a house. The bedroom will have 2 entrances from the old part of the house. I'm not sure which end of the bedroom to place the smoke detectors. Normally I know to place a smoke detector in the hallway outside of the bedrooms, then have one inside each bedroom, wired with 3 wire so that all come on at one time, but this layout is a little different from the norm. One of the entrances go into another existing bedroom, and the other entrance goes into a covered enclosed porch area. Also, here we have to wire for a carbon monoxide detector when an addition is added. Thanks, I'll still be looking. Just want to know the details. Steve..
