Smoke Detector Spacing Requirements Part 1

This week we took a good look at NFPA 72 17.7.3.2 (2016 edition) Spot Type Smoke Detectors and their spacing requirements.

They were not specific on distance for air handlers for larger than usual returns and supplies because it would depend on the rate of air flow, the direction and the manner in which the air is manipulated

What about required spacing for cross zone spot detectors for suppression systems

[@turtulad.panpaisan5293]

How about small meeting room that won't have any 36 in. clearance from both supply and return, any suggestions on detector location?

What about ceiling height? Can you give an example using the table in NFPA 72 say 26' tall = .40

[@PyrotexSystems]

I believe you are referring to table 17.6.3.5.1 and if so that table is for heat detector spacing. I do plan on covering that eventually, but first I am going to continue with smoke detectors
