All open plan, utility and pantry have doors. Fire Sensors in kitchen, utility, hall and landing on recommendation of installers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exodus then Yes Blue is combined Optical (Smoke) and Heat Ultimately, one for your installer to sort out, really, be interesting to see what they suggest. I have, in the past, been given silly directions by builders misinterpreting building control regs, e.g. was asked to fit smokes in every bedroom in a domestic house with loft extension 'because the regulations say'. I wonder if the same has happened with your installer here? Personally the kitchen would always be a heat detector, as recommended. Is it always just the one detector false alarming then?
