Every home in Scotland must have interlinked fire alarms by February 2022. Interlinked means if one goes off, they all go off, so you will always hear an alarm wherever you are in your home.
In Scotland, the law requires all homes to have a minimum level of fire detection as outlined by the Scottish Government. This includes installing interconnected fire and smoke alarms in the living room, hallways, and landings, as well as heat alarms in the kitchen. Carbon monoxide alarms are also required in any room with a carbon-fuelled appliance or flue. However, while these measures ensure basic compliance, higher levels of protection can be achieved by following the recommendations of BS 5839-6, which provides guidelines for more comprehensive fire detection systems.
