12. 12 Siting Conventional Detectors to BS6266 EDP Areas & High Airflow

13. 13 Siting Conventional Detectors to BS6266 EDP Areas & High Airflow NOTE: Where the risk justifies the extra cost involved, or the maximum response to fire is required, or as ventilation rates increase, the area of coverage per detector should be reduced. However, under these circumstances, the higher area coverage may still be acceptable if the point - type smoke detectors are supplemented by a high sensitivity aspirating system that forms part of the fire alarm system.
