Yes it does lol

 

Make zones unused or spare , then flaff around with it and hop you don't blow a fuse or something

 

On a side note put linked smokes and you can still link it to the alarm 

 

Doing above means you can remove all of them leave cables as is , protect all the ends incase you have them put back 

 

And then fit whatever junk you want 

 

 

Probably cheap £4.99 battery only detectors, he's already said that he's on a tight budget so they sure won't be Mains / Battery & seriously doubtful that they'll be linked.

Stop blagging 

£200 an hour is cheap ? . I seriously need to change areas, down here they bitch at £45.00 callouts.

Sent a long reply, which I assume needs moderating before it’s posted.

have contacted a different alarm company, who helped me out some years ago when the PSU failed on the main board and a repair was made.

 

he is coming Monday, £75 + VAT for an hour, which he said will be ample time to remove the zones and remove the wiring from the alarm panel......job done.....I am sure it’s not beyond me, but can’t fund the option in engineer mode to remove the zones, so will bite the bullet and pay to have it done.

 

thanks for all the advice....

Why are you disconnecting the original smokes ?. Really makes no sense, are they causing problems or have some failed ?. 

You really are downgrading your fire protection by a huge amount. Hope for your sake you don't have a fire.

You can actually buy a half decent spec smoke detector that's compatible with most alarms for less than £15.00 each.

Still missing something here, why disconnect them in the first place?

Quote he has probably is costing more than standalones, so he probably thinking get rid them as he doesn't want extra ones on ceiling , then goes buys £5 smokes which still works out cheaper all the smokes plus the £75+vat , than having them replaced, system tested and so on

£5 smokes are going to be ionisation which may not be the same or the correct type of detection.
