Where should smoke alarms be installed?

According to the NH State Fire Marshal, as well as the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), "install smoke alarms inside each bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement." This applies to all single-family dwellings, multi-unit dwellings, and rental units.
