Hi
I have the fire service come out to my house 2 weeks ago to do a safety check as part of my registration process. Whilst here the firemen supplied and fitted new smoke alarms, I said to them that I thought I might have needed mains powered ones and he said no it was ok as wasn't going to be using upstairs bedrooms.
I have just received their letter with their recomendations and they say on it I need to get 2 mains powered smoke alarms - eek! Am going to try phoning them tomorrow to see what they say as have been told there are no grants avail here now so would be a lot to pay out! All the other things I have to do are pretty simple - oh and have been told I must have the socket covers too!
Has anyone else had this after a visit (also they called at 5.45pm on a friday night to say they were coming and arrived at 6.30pm!!)
