FAQ's

You should fit a FireAngel alarm with Thermoptek technology and smoke alarm.

In order to identify how many alarms to install you need to research the guidelines for fire detection that apply in your local area, using regulations such as Building Regulations or the guidance in BS5839-6, and consider your property type; whether that be private owned, rented, new build, renovated etc. The advice below is purely provided for ‘best practice’ and should not be used independently.

If you live in Scotland find out more on our blog post here.

To offer high protection FireAngel advise a smoke alarm within the circulation area of each floor of the property (hallway & landing), as well as within the main habitable areas such as bedrooms and living room – where we usually have more electricals such as extension leads and chargers plugged in.

We recommend you install Smoke Alarms alongside Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarms and Kitchen Heat Alarms in your home for complete protection.

A quiet self-test allows you to ensure your alarm is working, without disturbing anyone else with a loud alarm.

A single press of the test button will perform a quiet self test, with the alarm volume at least 10dB below the full volume of your alarm.

A double press of the test button will perform a self test at full alarm volume (85dB@3M).

Looking for a FireAngel ST-622 smoke alarm replacement?

Replace your end of life ST-622 alarm with a FireAngel FA6615-R Optical Smoke Alarm with 5 year replaceable batteries or FireAngel FA6620-R Optical Smoke Alarm with 10 year sealed for life battery, without requiring a new base plate or leaving unsightly holes in your ceiling.

You will need to replace your baseplate for this alarm when replacing any end of life devices.

You may find the baseplate for your alarm is a little snug, which means it will need extra force to secure when fixing to the alarm. If the ‘lugs’ at the rear of the alarm can be seen, then the alarm will be secure and can be installed. However, if you’re unable to turn the baseplate enough for these to be seen then we can offer an alternative baseplate.

Baseplate not secure

Baseplate secure and engaged

When fixing your alarm to the baseplate, it’s important to turn it as far as possible to ensure it is engaged and secure. If the ‘lugs’ at the rear of the alarm can be seen, then the alarm will be secure and can be installed. However, if you’re unable to turn the baseplate enough for these to be seen then we can offer an alternative baseplate.
