Smoke detectors are important and should ideally be installed in every domestic property throughout the country. If you own a rental property then it is a legal requirement that you have in date battery or hard wired smoke detectors in place.
There are different grades of smoke detection within the domestic setting. These are know as LD1, LD2 and LD3.
LD1 is the highest form of protection it requires protection in places such as, loft conversions, bedrooms, landings, kitchens and dining rooms.
LD2 is what’s classed as medium protection, the areas in need of smoke or heat detection are escape routes and high risk areas such as loft conversions, landings, halls, kitchens and living rooms.
LD3 is the minimum protection what’s required, this is the most commonly found within the domestic setting. It covers escape routes such as halls, landings and loft conversions.
