We have an interesting one with our detectors. Our fire alarm maintenance people recently installed new heat and smoke detectors in each flat and they don’t have test buttons on them. When I queried them about it (because our residents handbook advises residents to test monthly), they said that this isn’t needed as they do a six-monthly check.
I am going with that for now as that was the official advice, but I’ll be interested to hear what the fire risk assessor says when he visits us in the summer…!

Thank you Nick – a very helpful and comprehensive answer as always 🙂

Hi Nick – many thanks for this – very helpful!

[Sally Bertram]

That’s great – thank you Nick! Very helpful.

The only thing I’ve not done on your list is a Permit Before Work control, so I’ll get that organised and hopefully we’ll then be doing all the right things!

Kind Regards

Sally
