In the Garage I'd say do the smokie by your projector. As for the house maybe one of the heat detectors in the attic or the pull station by the panel. Also, what would be pretty cool is if you had a monitor module that would put the garage panel into supervisory when the generator is running. I guess one way that would work is taking a relay with a 120-volt coil and when the 120 volts from the generator energizes the relay coil, it would close the relay, tripping the module.

You see lots installed not necessarily because it's a good product. mostly the products that are installed in the building depends on who the contractor works with. if they have deals with certain companies and often times electrical contractors have a go to company for fire alarm that will install one product only. sometimes depending on your actual area they're only is a few options for install. cost a factor if EST is cheap to install

I've worked with them in the field it's not fun requires a person at each panel with communication with each other at all time. And resets have to be coordinated.
