According to the National Fire Prevention Association, you have less than 2 minutes to get out safely once the smoke alarms sound. Smoke alarms are built to sense smoke well before people can. A smoke alarm needs to be in every bedroom, outside of sleeping areas (hallways), and at least one on each level of a residence. It is suggested that you do not put a smoke alarm in your kitchen and bathroom.
