2 questions.
#1
I know I need smoke alarms and CO2 alarms in the basement but I cant fine any thing on how many. See image.
I figured a CO and smoke alarm (and I know there are different kinds) in the furnace room, far from the ignition source of the furnace and hot water heater.
Does the theater room need its own smoke alarm? It is about 12x25. The yellow dots are approximate locations of installed can lighting or fluorescent strips.
Is it also true that you just tie the alarms to well used circuits? Just tap the lighting circuit? That way if the lights are not working then I know the alarm is not working too right. They dont need their own ciruit I guess is what I'm asking.
(not to scale and generalized)
#2
Is it acceptable to wire outlets in a "T" shape where the leg of the T is the source and the top of the T are the outlets? I'm guessing it doesn't matter. The source comes in and then is branched out along the wall. Illustrated by the thin red line.
Thanks
