Fitted with a replaceable 9V alkaline back-up battery in case of mains failure, this alarm can be hardwire interlinked with up to 12 compatible smoke alarms and 6 heat alarms to provide a simultaneous warning in an emergency situation.

Product Datasheets |
BS 5839-6 recommends that one or two storey HMOs with an individual floor area of no more than 200sqm (not the total of both floors) should have a Grade D smoke alarm system installed. Grade D refers to mains powered smoke alarms with a back up battery power supply. The alarms can be interlinked either by wire or by radio signal and the system does not require a separate fire alarm panel. For HMOs of 3 storey or higher, a Grade A panel system would need to be installed. This can cover the whole of the building, or can be used just for the communal areas with a separate Grade D system installed for the individual dwellings. For both applications, the level of cover should be a minimum of LD3 (in all escape routes) but this may change according to the fire risk assessment.
The sticky pad is suitable for all battery operated smoke alarms. However, we cannot judge if battery alarms are suitable for your let property, as let properties usually require mains powered alarms. There is some advice to this in the governments guides to fire risk assessments. http://www.safelincs.co.uk/Fire-Risk-Assessment/ Also see the LACoRS guide for let properties.

A perfect retro-fit for my old 86RACEMP alarms Old 86RACEMP smoke detectors had failed, these new one's have the same port and so the wire just plugs straight in. You can change the wire if you desire as one is supplied in the package. Slight hole adjustment needed for my ceiling screws to attach the bracket, but no problem.
