• MasterGuard QR-50, 3. Additional Placement Information MasterGuard recommends complete home fire protection, achieved by installing a combination of Smoke and Heat Alarms in their appropriate locations throughout the house. Do not install Heat Alarms in bedrooms without accompanying Smoke Alarms. Heat from a fire rises to the ceiling, spreads out across the ceiling surface and begins to bank down from the ceiling. The corner where the ceiling and the wall meet is an air space into which heat has difficulty penetrating. This is dead air space! Alarms must not be placed in the dead air space.
