Smoke alarm question

goldenboy1818

Hi guys attended a Aico training day yesterday, and just wondered what everyone's interpretation of the regs are.

So say for a standard 3 bed new build house 

A d1 LD2 system is required...do you all put smokes in the most habitable room as well as kitchen, hall, landing, utility etc ?

Also with solar would you put a smoke in a loft, this wasnt really covered. A solar team told me only if its covering the battery but the aico guy seemed to say if anything was up there including the inverter 

Thank you

  • Good point by Turbogen. Whether a detector is in the loft or not, cognisance of Part M, and indeed, general health and safety common sense, would require a remote hush/test/reset facility. In fact, this might be a 5839-6 requirement.
