CAN ULC-S552-14 (R2019) PDF Download

CAN ULC-S552-14 (R2019) is a standard that outlines the guidelines for the inspection, testing, and maintenance of smoke alarms. It specifically applies to smoke alarms found within dwelling units and sleeping areas that are not part of dwelling units. The standard emphasizes the importance of regularly inspecting, testing, and maintaining smoke alarms to ensure their proper functioning.

It is important to note that the standard references another document, CAN/ULC-S553, which covers the installation requirements for smoke alarms. Compliance with these installation requirements is necessary to meet the standards set forth in CAN ULC-S552-14 (R2019).

However, it is worth mentioning that CAN ULC-S552-14 (R2019) does not cover residential fire warning systems. For guidelines related to these systems, reference should be made to the standard CAN/ULC-S540, which specifically addresses the installation, inspection, testing, and maintenance of residential fire and life safety warning systems.
