All domestic properties across the UK should have quality alarms in place to detect and alert residents of potential fire.
Fire detection and alarm systems are designed to provide warning to the outbreak of fire and so allow the evacuation and appropriate fire-fighting action to be taken before the situation gets out of control. It is, therefore, vital that these systems are manufactured, installed, and maintained correctly to ensure their effectiveness in protecting lives and domestic property.

Compliance with this standard is very commonly required by building control bodies, fire and rescue and other authorities throughout the UK who may enforce provisions for fire safety in certain occupancies.
