Home Smoke Alarms Vs Smoke Alarms for Businesses

Smoke alarms for homes and businesses serve the same purpose, detecting smoke and providing an early warning in case of fire, but they have key differences in design, regulations, and functionality.

Domestic smoke alarms are typically standalone units, powered by batteries or mains electricity, and are designed for easy installation. They are commonly optical detectors, with interlinked options available for increased safety.

Business premises, however, require more advanced fire detection systems to comply with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. These systems often include interlinked smoke and heat detectors, centrally controlled fire alarm panels, and integration with other fire safety equipment such as emergency lighting and automatic fire doors. Commercial-grade alarms are designed for higher occupancy buildings, covering larger areas and detecting fires faster in complex environments.
