Hi all,
For those of you who have experience in fire alarms (comp to BS5839 -1);
I am having a disagreement with a client about the categorization of a fire alarm in their HMO which I recently inspected & tested.
They insist it is cat LD1 which is the case all apart from the absence of a detector in the under stairs cupboard where the meter and CU is located.
I say there should be one in there for it to be cat LD1 but they say the installer of the system carried out a risk assessment and deemed it unnecessary because the CU is Amend 3 compliant!? Never heard of this before. Also no detectors in crawl space roof voids either side of the loft conversion?
Cheers
