I have Nest mains powered smoke alarms because I've never found a battery operated one I trust to be reliable
Does it help significantly with house insurance?
Also? Thank you all, just need to put that plaque out for @amey to collect on Sangley Road.
Well they're required by current building regs but apart from that you're golden 😂
Also if mains ones are already installed I suspect that @NickCJ replacing them with battery alarms would not be kosher.
I have Nest mains powered smoke alarms because I've never found a battery operated one I trust to be reliable - they're made down to a price point and I've had new ones from supposedly reputable brands not pick up smoke.
Standard mains powered alarms are cheap though.
