  1. Hi Tom hasn't been active for a few years now. Thanks Rahel
  2. Good morning you can use this smoke alarm with your old Ei140 series base. thanks Rahel
  3. Hi Safelincs have developed some replacements for the DETA 1111, DETA 1113 and for the DETA 1115 units, but there is currently no replacement for the DETA 1151 so new units will have to be installed. thanks Rahel
  4. Hi Fire doors must be installed by a trained and competent person such as a qualified fire door installer. To have a look at costs and different designs feel free to try our Bespoke Fire Door Configurator. I hope this helps. Rahel
  5. Good morning Federica I'm not sure what regulations you have in Italy and would definitely recommend finding out. From a safety perspective please make sure to install carbon monoxide alarms in all flats. These will alert any occupants if CO levels reach dangerous levels. thanks Rahel
  6. Good morning Harry the post you refer to above is nearly 10 years old and the document linked has expired. This seems to be the new version. @AnthonyB please feel free to correct me, if I'm wrong. thanks Rahel
  7. P50

    Hi the short answer is yes, P50 extinguishers fulfil all legal requirements. For a bit more information please feel free to read this article. Rahel
  8. Good afternoon if your reminder is with us (Safelincs Ltd) there should be an unsubscribe link in the reminder email. Alternatively you can send us an an email to support@safelincs.co.uk and we can unsubscribe you from our side. I hope this helps. Rahel

    Hi the Dicon 370MBX hasn't been tested for compatibility with the SBBRKSM Easichange alarms and therefore I wouldn't recommend using this unit to replace your alarm. thanks Rahel
  10. Hi Stephanie as a first step I would strongly advise to evacuate your home in case of carbon monoxide being present and call Gas Emergency Services on 0800 111 999 for next steps. Please don't go back into your property until it has been checked and cleared for carbon monoxide as you can't see or smell the gas. regards Rahel
  11. Hi Eric ok, thanks for pointing this out again. We don't currently have any air transfer grilles that work on cold smoke. Maybe someone else here has any experience? Thanks Rahel
  12. Hi Eric you could use our fire rated intumescent air transfer grill which is available in the size of your hole (150x150cm). I hope this helps. Rahel

    Hi Jo we haven't had any feedback from customers yet using the SBBRKSM on the old DETA1111 bases. Sadly, for us there is no way of testing this. The new units were designed to fit on the BRK baseplates but the older units had different wiring and may not be compatible. thanks Rahel

    Hi Rob you can replace your BRK670MBX with our Easychange SBBRKSM smoke alarms. In our testing there don't appear to be any issues when mixing the old BRK670MBX units with our SBBRKSM, but we can't guarantee that it will work reliably with a larger system or over long periods of time. Therefore we would recommend that you replace all 7 of your units at the same time. I hope this helps Rahel

    Good morning Gareth thank you very much for your question. The easichange SBBRKSM alarm is a new unit we developed specifically so it can be used on the 660MBX and 670MBX baseplates. Like you say logically they should also fit your DETA1111 alarms but we have not tested this and therefore cannot guarantee it will work. thanks Rahel
