HMO Smoke Alarms & Emergency Lighting in New England, Peterborough
As part of converting a property in New England, Peterborough into a house in multiple occupation (HMO), the team installed a hardwired, interlinked smoke alarm system, emergency lighting and illuminated exit direction signs. According to the team's account, the installation followed the fire safety requirements set for this HMO conversion under Peterborough City Council guidance. Emergency lighting and hardwired interlinked smoke alarm certificates were issued for the completed installations.
