Fire alarms in Wandsworth
The borough has a large stock of Victorian and Edwardian terraces converted into flats and house shares, plus the newer blocks around Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station that run communal BS 5839-1 systems. Wandsworth Council licenses HMOs and will ask to see the fire alarm certificate at licensing and inspection; a Grade D LD2 system is the usual starting point for a shared house of two or three storeys. For shops and restaurants along Northcote Road, Tooting High Street and Putney High Street we design to BS 5839-1, fit the system around trading hours and leave the certificate the fire officer and the insurer ask for.
