Hi Guys

Recently finished a new build house, 2 levels/ 5 bed.
Wired AICO grade D LD2 system throughout.

LABC has come to sign off saying needs to be grade A system.
Havent got full details, just to chatted to builder (owner of property) on phone.

Did only think this was required on a domestic property when 3 levels+ and/ or HMO ?

Can someone help on this please ?

Thanks Sy
 
So what’s the solution? Does it have to be hard wired? Running cable surface? That’s going to look good in a finished build.

Is there a battery solution that can be used?

Hopefully the LABC are mistaken, but it’s going to be an uphill struggle to get them to admit it.

We've spoken to 'fire alarm co.' we use from time to time...... there is a wireless system that would do it and comply with LABC.
Will be pricey though !! Better than pulling £1.5million new build apart to hard wire (which isn't a conventional layout by any means)

Next step is back to LABC to try and negotiate, over to the Architect/ Builder
