Well I am very glad I have raised this topic as I have clearly got us all thinking about our home safety.
I do not like paying so much for these devices, yet I also agree that they are very important.
So, I shall be ordering one now.
Thank you all very much. But I still think they should be subsidised or free, seeing as this nanny state in which we live is so keen to take control of every other aspect of our lives.0 -

Glad to be of assistance, that's what MSE is all about, isn't it?

Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton0 -
If it's not an HMO you wouldn't have been liable for anything. If it was an HMO, the alarms should have been wired-in. As a responsible landlord, I provide smoke alarms, but I CBA to go round checking the batteries.
It wasn't an HMO, it was our family home and our son lived there with his girlfriend and a lodger. We have moved back into it now!
I did think I would be liable though, if the smoke alarms were not working properly. Thanks for that information.(AKA HRH_MUngo)

Thanks for the link seven-day-weeekend. I really need to get round to having one of these as my boiler is over 10 years old now. When I had my last service the npower fitter tried to flog me one that he "had on the van" for about £30 so I was a bit put off, but this looks ideal.0
