Connect to Protect

As of February 2022, every home in Scotland must have interlinked fire (smoke and heat) alarms.

Being interlinked means if one alarm goes off, they all go off. You may not always hear the alarm closest to the fire, especially if you’re somewhere else in the house. An interlinked system will alert you immediately.

If you are a homeowner, it’s your responsibility to make sure your home meets the new fire alarm standards.

By February 2022 every home in Scotland will need to have:

  • One smoke alarm in the room you spend most of the day, usually your living room
  • One smoke alarm in every circulation space on each storey, such as hallways and landings
  • One heat alarm in the kitchen
  • All smoke and heat alarms should be mounted on the ceiling and be interlinked.
  • Smoke alarms in every circulation space on each storey, such as hallways and landings
    Smoke alarms installed in the room most frequently used for general daytime living purposes
  • Heat alarms are installed in every kitchen
  • All smoke and heat alarms should be interlinked
  • Carbon monoxide alarms are to be fitted where there is a fuel-burning appliance or a flue
  • This applies to ALL homeowners and landlords.

SmartLink Carbon Monoxide Detectors

If you have a carbon-fuelled appliance, like a boiler, fire, heater or flue you must also have a carbon monoxide detector. This does not need to be linked to the fire alarms.

We can install a fully compliant interlinked fire safety system using mains and 10-year lithium battery detectors.
