Extension just done, one Aico fitted. Now Building Control say they want 2 more in the house, can you fit wireless ones. Told him 'Yes, but she'll have to turn her radio on for them to operate'. For about 10 seconds he actually looked worried.lol.
3 alarms just because of an extension? Thought you only needed that with new-builds.
You might want to suggest CO and heat alarms (for any gas boiler and kitchen) as well.Disabled grant job for local authority. He wants one in the new extension and two in the house, one at the foot of the stairs and one on the landing, all interlinked.

Thanks for all the replies. I should have asked exactly when she took them down, but as I said, I was there looking at another job at the time and didn't have very long.
I think I will quote her for fitting 2 new Aico Ei166RC and give her some advice on keeping them clean.
Moses, relocation not really possible as the ceilings are really small and I think the original sparky got them pretty spot-on. Thanks for the input tho
I nearly suggested something else to the awkward sod.You might want to suggest CO and heat alarms (for any gas boiler and kitchen) as well.
If the extension is substantial and of course depending on the type, i have been required to install smoke alarms to all floors.
I use the Aico, and if you can get a feed to it, you can use the radio bases for linking duties.
They also do a remote wireless switch that can be used in many configurations.
If you have the interlink wired then EI146 Optical smoke alarms might be cheaper than EI166RC.
I think alot will depend on the existing house layout and differences from council to council as they work from a list of advise and regulations and I'm sure we have all had cases where they hear something that sounds good and tell you they want it as if it was regulation.3 alarms just because of an extension? Thought you only needed that with new-builds.
