October 26, 20223 yr comment_30658 Good morning,can anyone help please.I have a 2 bed flat with 2 tenants, it's a private rental in a converted house.Downstairs is another private rental with 2 tenants . I had a fire risk assessment of the hallway as a friend of mine said I needed to ensure it was safe ,and now have many works that need to be carried out .Including a fire alarm system in the hallway .I haven't got any issues with this ,but being a small set up it says online that these systems as well as monthly checks they also need weekly checks and recording of this . Is this system necessary for communal hallways in non HMO dwellings ? I'm so confused as the maintenance of this seems a lot. They also mention about getting a company to check compartmentation as well? Fire doors onto hallway( this seems pretty standard though . Having fire extinguishers in hallway ( I thought people were meant to try and get out asap ?) Im just confused as neither property is a HMO but to me it looks like this is the way it is being treated ? Any advice please? Many thanks? Report
