Recommendations For Mains Smoke, CO & Heat Alarms

[EViS]

Can anyone recommend good quality, taking into account value for money, mains powered smoke, CO and heat alarms? How about the Kidde stocked by TLC (see here), any good, or are there better?

 

[telectrix]

aico are the most widely used.

Yep, I agree, Aico for me. I find them easy to install and work well. Used both the smoke and heat version.

AICO. Absolutely well thought out and not generally realised, but if there's an issue, the technical help / after sales has been, well, outstanding.

AICO, IF reading, hope the cheques in the post to me !

I'm with them, AICO every time.

Which heat/CO/smoke models can you particularly recommend which can all wire up together? And a good supplier, does anyone beat TLC's prices?

Wilts sold me a heat for 22.85 and optical for 15.36 + vat, damn good prices until the bill came through at 33.85 and 25.68. In the process of sorting that :uhoh2:

Re: Recommendations For Mains Smoke, CO & Heat Alarms

I got my Aicos fom Aico, ESP Alarms, Aico Smoke Alarms, Rokonet, Visonic - E-Supply Ltd if thats any help, came pretty quickly and had no problems with them. Worth having a browse around their site even if you buy them elsewhere as there are a number of different types (wired / wireless / optical / ionisation etc). You can also download the instructions from the site too which is handy to make sure they're wat you're after before you buy.

Aico rc range with test/ locate switch is an ideal set up.

Matey, several people here have suggested the same make. Use them and learn.

Going on about cheap makes me think you are on of those cash only, cheap skate cowboys.
