B&B SMOKE ALARM?

Featured Replies

I have a bed and breakfast in a 4 bed bungalow. What would be the best type of smoke / fire detector to comply with any regulations?

If you are a bed and breakfast has your local fire authority/officer informed you about which level of detection you have to have? Normally, they will ask you to conform to a certain Grade of the British Standard BS5839 pt6.

Grade F - Battery operated smoke alarms.

Grade D - Mains powered smoke alarms with battery backup and interlink. This option includes radio-interlinked mains powered smoke alarms

Hi there how much is a 5 bedroom B&b smoke alarm system cost roughly, I also live in the property 

Your question sounds simple, but it has too many variables, even if you were given a guess you still have to get at least 2 quotes for the work.

You should start with a Fire Risk Assessment.

Yes, you need a category & grade based on the layout, use and size of the premises. There is a big difference between a load of radio linked Grade D2 smoke & heat alarms and a full Grade A fire alarm system - either of which could apply in your case!
