On each level of the dwelling. Not only that but they are required to be present in the house when selling the house as well. This essentially guarantees that all houses will eventually be up to code as the remediation is required before sales can occur. Personally I put one in each room. Unfortunately this also comes as an unfortunate expense. Since combination smoke + CO detectors run ~$30 a piece.
