4 Further evidence of the vital importance of smoke alarms comes from American studies. In American States where residential f ire protection is m andator y , some 92% of homes have the required f ire alarm systems . 50% of ALL the f ire deaths which occur ha ppen within the 8% where no alarms are fitted.

5 THE ESSENTIAL CHANGES T O BS 5839: Pt.6: 2004 – A T A GLANCE THE DOCUMENT ITSELF Each clause of the document is now split into 2 parts .

6 SYSTEM V ARIA TIONS Where a modif ication to a system is made, the standard now refers to it as a ‘V ariation’ r ather than a ‘Deviation’, as the latter term implied that the system w as in some way inf erior . Note that, in cases where a variation from the recommendations is proposed, the system certificate has to be signed and agreed by[...]

Fires caused by electrical appliances account f or some 10% of all household f ires, but result in only 6% of deaths . Electric blankets and bed w ar mer s cause 40% of all the deaths in f ires due to f aulty electrical appliances . The Code says that ‘use of electric blankets, par ticular ly by high risk groups such as the elderly , increases th[...]

10 People with impaired mobility require more time to escape. They need the earliest possible warning of a fire and greater alarm cover age. The hear ing impaired also have v er y particular needs, and these are dealt with later in this document. It is obvious to an y landlord - in the public or private sector - that those judged to be most at risk[...]

SYSTEM PLANNING BS 5839: Pt.6 quite reasonably points out that, no matter how good the system is, people will only hav e an adequate chance of escape if there are enough detectors installed and if the alarms can successfully rouse them from sleep.

14 The Code also looks at a third type of alarm - heat. More emphasis is placed upon the use of heat alarms than previously .

In new build pr operties heat alarms are now recommended both in the kitch[...]

P ositioning of Smoke Alar ms: There are a number of f actors one has to take into consider ation when positioning and maintaining a smoke alarm.
