 9.10.19.3. Location of Smoke Alarms

A smoke alarm is not required on each level in a #split-level dwelling unit given that each level does not count as a separate #storey. However, where the sleeping areas are on two levels of a single storey in a split-level #dwelling unit, an additional smoke alarm must be installed so that both areas are protected (Figure 9.10.-41).
