Why Are Fire Alarms So Important?
House fires can spread in minutes. Without early detection, lives and property are at serious risk.
Installing the right type of fire alarm in the correct location significantly increases your chance of early detection, giving you more time to escape and contact emergency services.
UK Fire Alarm Regulations for Homes (As of 2025)
In the UK, domestic fire alarm requirements are governed by BS 5839-6:2019+A1:2020, the British Standard for fire detection and fire alarm systems in dwellings.
Key Regulation Highlights:
All homes must have fire alarms installed and maintained.
This includes both owner-occupied and rental properties.
Minimum requirement:
At least one smoke alarm on every storey of the property
A heat alarm in the kitchen
All alarms should be interlinked (if one goes off, they all go off)
Rental Properties:
Landlords are legally required to install working smoke alarms and conduct regular checks at the start of each tenancy under the Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm (Amendment) Regulations 2022 (England).
Types of alarms required:
Grade D1 (hard-wired with battery backup) is the standard for most domestic settings
Grade F1 (tamper-proof battery alarms) may be suitable for lower-risk homes
We’ll help you choose the right alarm system based on your property type, layout, and risk level.
