How many smoke detectors are required?
That varies from state to state, and city to city, I suggest you contact your building inspector for the area that your property is located in and they will be able to tell you the number and location of smoke detectors and/or fire extinguishers that are required per the fire code. This is an absolute must that you follow these guidelines and provide these. If there is ever a loss, personal injury, or fatality and you have failed to provide them or neglected them in any way and a civil lawsuit is filed. Just show up at court with your checkbook, keys to your personal house and car, as you will lose and lose big!!!!
