Fire alarm - DIY or Electrician?

  • I know I'm a little late to the party but with just 2 weeks before the legislation comes into play, in Scotland, I've just purchased 3 smoke alarms and a heat alarm, all interlinked, for £108.00 with free delivery from - 'Linked up Alarms' who state that they comply with the new Scottish regulations. They are wireless and can be set up easily by most. There really isn't much you can do wrong. Screw onto the wall and link. You don't even have to faff with the battery! Note, I already have a Co2 alarm and this doesn't have to be linked. These can be picked up for £10-£15 on Amazon
