Detectomat's RCP 6B - Wireless Detect Chosen By HMO Landlords In Gloucester
Martyn Young of CIS says "Landlords want a safe environment for their tenants but they also want to avoid the inconvenience - mess and potential damage to decoration associated with installing conventional fire alarm systems and we propose the detectomat system because it's a reliable, fast fix, no damage solution, which can be installed in hours as opposed to days."
The detectomat Wireless detect system includes optical smoke detectors with integral sounders (no need for separate sounders), break-glass call points and heat detectors. The primary means of automatic detection and alarm is detectomat's HDv3000 system standard, third party certified, self-contained smoke alarm, which is combined in a radio network with other field devices and a six zone panel to form a wire-free, radio fire alarm system. Reduced installation time is a significant advantage and whereas a conventional system may take 10 days to install, the detectomat system takes typically less than 8 hours, an obvious benefit for landlords when considering their requirements. In many applications there are also direct as well as indirect cost savings from using a wireless solution but the main decision factors are usually minimum installation time, disruption, mess and potential damage to the building fabric and decoration.
Landlord experience:
Peter Joiner is Chairman of the Catherine Ball Charity who chose the system for their Alms House in Cheltenham. Peter says "I felt the installation went very well, as the installers were quick, efficient and very tidy. We at the charity felt this option was best value for money due to the least amount of disturbance to our tenants with no damage to the interior and a cost-effective solution, which has resulted in us being extremely pleased with our choice."
Tony Sage chose a detectomat Wireless detect system for his HMO in Dursley Gloucester because "It seemed a quick and easy, cost-effective solution with no inconvenience for his tenants". He is happy with the installation and is considering it for further properties.
Jane Hinaman also chose the Wireless detect for her HMO in Cheltenham, she had just decorated and thought the system was ideal as it avoided damage to decoration, lifting floorboards or carpets and running unsightly cable trunking through a period property. And it was also installed in a morning avoiding disruption to tenants.
There is vast potential for replication throughout the UK. Indeed, detectomat's Wireless detect system is ideal for any business where disruption would cause a loss of business and continuity, including HMOs, guest houses, retail premises and small factories and workshops.
These examples demonstrate the clear benefits from using radio wire-free fire alarms to provide fire protection in businesses where fast installation and minimum disruption is essential.
