Do you install fire alarm systems?

Chris Pearson
Bit of thread drift going on elsewhere, so I have started a new one.


"Do you install fire alarm systems?" - a question which is asked on insurance renewal, but what does it mean?


IMHO, there is a world of difference between providing a mains supply with third core for linking for a couple of smoke detectors and a heat detector in the kitchen on the one hand (i.e. the minimum grade D2 LD3); and a full on panel with separate detectors and sounder etc. (grade A LD2) in a large house. I consider myself perfectly capable of providing the former, but have never attempted the latter.


So where does the threshold lie? I'd be interested in views on certification too please.

    No cans of smoke, no hot air guns, follow the manufacturers instructions and press the test button.


    They have an expiration date on them.


    Anyone who cannot understand how to check smoke and heat alarms are fit for purpose should not be a letting agent, landlord or electrician.
