Front door - contact Kitchen Door - contact Hall - PIR Front left Lounge - PIR Front Right Kitchen - Duel Tec Rear right Landing - PIR Rear Left This is my opinion and not a guarantee that it is suitable for the application you have in mind. PS how do you get in bedroom one? Trade Member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arfur mo Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Kitchen dual tec is a bit over the top imo. not really imo markovitch, i always consider kitchens and conservatories as 'hostile' environments, often timed cookers get switch on so the meal is ready on arrival, also most likely area's for small windows to be left ajar to allow the cooking smells to abate. also if they have kids then will they get to look after 'joey the rabbit' for half term. so where is it kept? in the kitchen or conservatory . no matter how many times you tell the client, they will always leave a kitchen window open a few notches, so a dual tec in the kitchen is a very very good precaution. regs Alan (trust the voice of experience ) If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!
