Talked to a firefighter at a job in Phoenix and he changed my mind on smoke detector placement
He said they find a lot of detectors in hallways, but the smoke often pools in bedrooms first. Now I always put one inside each bedroom, not just outside in the hall. How do you guys handle placement in a standard residential layout?

Our code here requires one in every bedroom and hallway.

That's everywhere now. Feels like we're just adding more rules for everything.

Honestly, harper693's rule just makes it feel worse.
