During an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) at this property in Bexley, we identified that there was no smoke or heat detection installed. Although smoke alarms aren’t part of the EICR itself, we always check that suitable fire detection is present, confirm the age of any existing alarms, and advise landlords or managing agents where improvements are recommended.
For this property, we installed Aico wireless interlinked alarms to provide reliable protection without the need for disruptive rewiring. A smoke alarm was fitted in the hallway and a heat alarm installed in the kitchen, with both units communicating wirelessly to ensure that if one alarm activates, they all sound throughout the property.
The Aico alarms feature sealed 10-year lithium batteries, helping to reduce maintenance while providing long-term reliability. This upgrade gives the landlord confidence that the property now benefits from modern, dependable fire detection suitable for rental accommodation.
