[QUOTE="wozz, post: 77226, member: 2011"] for domestic always aico with alkaline battery backup, not the more expensive lithium. theres loads of information on the aico site about siting of the alarms. i usually use optical in living rooms/ hallways (good response to smoulding fires from furnishings) ionisation in landings as i believe optical gets really upset by moisture and most landings have a steamy bathroom near by. this is a bit of a generalization i know.
