The Scottish Government has introduced new rules for fire and smoke alarms across homes in Scotland. From February 2022, every home in Scotland must have:

A smoke alarm in the living room or most commonly used room

A smoke alarm in circulation spaces such as hallways or landings

A heat alarm in every kitchen

 We have produced a leaflet outlining the details of this new safety requirement and the work we have undertaken to ensure your home is safe and compliant with this new legislation.
