Do toilets need to be equipped with fire detectors?

There is no need for a separate fire detector in the guest room.

The Code for the Design of High-rise Civil Buildings stipulates that high-rise buildings with a building height of more than 100 meters, except for toilets and toilets with a construction area of less than 5 square meters, should be equipped with automatic fire alarm systems. Therefore, according to the regulations, toilets with a height of more than 100 meters and an area of more than 5 square meters must be equipped with smoke detectors.

In fact, in real life, there are far more bathrooms with smoke detectors than are required in the regulations. For example, smoke detectors are generally installed in public restrooms in large shopping malls, public places, and entertainment venues. Since many people with smoking addiction prefer to hide in the toilet to smoke, smoke detectors will also be installed in the toilets in some places that require strict smoking bans, such as dangerous goods warehouses and high-risk chemical plants.

There are also toilets in closed places, such as high-speed railways and airplanes, which are equipped with highly sensitive smoke detectors, because once a fire breaks out in these places, the consequences will be extremely serious, so this method must be used to ban smoking.

Of course, the bathroom of an ordinary family does not need to install a smoke detector, on the one hand, the family bathroom generally has a bathing function.
