Where would you stick it?

But nearlythere, It is impossible for me to work out if your reply is cryptic, sarcastic or humorous!

You would have to elaborate on your 20 word response to my 200,000 word post, for me to try to have any chance of me understanding which it is!

Its humorous Wiz and its Friday. Have a nice weekend.

PS. 200,000 words? Are you being sarcastic or what?

....Its humorous Wiz and its Friday....

Well that's a relief - I thought you'd spotted something I'd missed!

I'd like to say that I just can't count, but actually I'm prone to wild exaggerations!

Have a nice weekend yourself. If your are in the Banter Bar over the weekend I'll tell you the story about my role in the winning of the World Cup in 1966.

Yes. Nice goal I must say. Pity it went in the wrong net.

Cheers.

In your initial question you refered to a ''roof space'' , not a room, in a roof with sloping sides or a room with
an unusual roof configuration . A roof space that is not a room is a void, and the  !.5 M reference is from BS 5838 pt 1 2002 + A2 :2008 ref as given. for unventilated voids up to 1.5M height.

Thanks for this reply Dave.

firstly I'm assuming that you meant to type 5839, of course

My original post was meant to refer to a room with an unusual ceiling. It would have been better if I used the word ceiling but even BS sometimes uses the word roof when talking about detector placement on a ceiling! See Figure 6 of BS 5839 pt 1 2002 for example.

Terminology can confuse many issues! Sorry for the confusion.

I am not yet in possession of the 2008 version, so I can't yet clarify what you meant by your mention of 1.5M. Could you be so kind as to give me a fuller explanation of this recommendation so that I understand.

Cheers

But just in case it didn't work, and someone accused me of choosing the wrong position. I might like to be able to justify my desicion as being based on a BS recommendation, rather than saying Thebeardedyorkshireman said it would be o.k. . As far as I can see, the BS recommendations don't cover the situation in question.
