What you need to know about smoke alarms:
• Smoke Alarms must now be hard wired in.
• The number of smoke alarms you will require will depend on the design of your property, in particular the number of bedrooms, how far they are separated and how many levels in your house. Regulations state you must have a smoke detector installed no further then 3 metres from a Bedroom door.
• Residential properties that are subject to sale, transfer of ownership, rent or hire are required under the Building Regulations 2012 to have compliant mains powered smoke alarms installed:
• prior the transfer of ownership,
• where a dwelling is rented under a residential tenancy agreement or made available for such rental; or
• made available for hire.
• Check the smoke alarms are within their service life. Smoke alarms require replacement every 10 years. The date for replacement is often located on the unit.
