Testing snoke alarms

[ashnook]

Do we have to test the smoke alarms installed in domestic premises? For example for noise level in the bedroom etc? Also do we need to do a smoke test on each one?

Aswell

yes you do have to test and certify, the sound level at the bed head should be >75db

Thanks, door open or door closed? Where can I get a cost effective sound level meter?

Thanks.
