Short answer

In apartment blocks the requirements depend on height, while a private home only needs standalone smoke alarms in the rooms and heat alarms in the kitchen and boiler room.

In apartment buildings the requirements depend on the number of storeys: smoke detectors in flats, fire detection in corridors and plant rooms, and smoke extraction and pressurisation in high-rises.

For a private house, standalone smoke alarms in every room and heat alarms in the kitchen and boiler room are enough — inexpensive and life-saving.

Practical tips

Fit standalone alarms in bedrooms and hallways — fires are most dangerous at night.
Change batteries yearly or choose models with a 10-year sealed battery.
Keep an extinguisher at home, especially near the kitchen.

Frequently asked questions

Where should a smoke alarm go in a flat?

On the ceiling in bedrooms, the living room and hallway, away from the kitchen and bathroom.

Is a fire alarm mandatory in an apartment block?

It depends on the building's height and year of construction.
