Installation
The three part plastic case allows the GD-2A to be either surface
mounted or installed over a four-inch square or double gang electrical box, providing a near flush mount.
Location
A GD-2A is usually located in each room (except kitchens or bathrooms) where there are gas appliances or
through which gas pipes pass. Do NOT mount the GD-2A in a corner. Do NOT mount the GD-2A in kitchens or
bathrooms - alcohol’s, ammonia, cleaning solvents, paint thinner, gasoline vapors, and aerosol propellants
(aerosol cans such as hair spray usually contain a combustible gas) may cause alarms. Do NOT mount the
GD-2A where the normal ambient temperature is below 32° F (0° C) or exceeds 120° F (50° C). If the gas used
is natural gas (methane) mount the GD-2A on a wall about one foot down from the ceiling. If the gas used is
propane (LP), mount the GD-2A on a wall or column one foot above the floor. Use the same spacing as for smoke
detectors- 30-foot centers, 900 square feet per detector.
