A garden room is included only if someone sleeps there. · Call 07460 070551 Smoke alarms in Chipstead are fitted in every bedroom and on the landing, and the kitchen receives a heat alarm. A garden room is included only when someone sleeps in it. ## How Chipstead alarms are counted The figure is the heads for the rooms that need them, including a garden room only when it is slept in. Extra heads are counted before they are fitted. An inspection of the fixed wiring is not in the figure. - Smoke alarm installation: from £150 - A stable that nobody sleeps in is not given a head. - Mains heads need a tested circuit, not a battery stuck up as a substitute. - The consumer unit is not changed on this visit. ## Smoke & heat alarm installation across Chipstead We serve Chipstead from our base in Banstead. - High Road - Outwood Lane - Starrock Lane - Hazelwood Lane - How Lane - Coulsdon Lane - Hazel Way - Chipstead station - Shabden Park ## What happens on the day Each bedroom is given a smoke alarm, the landing is given one, and the kitchen is given a heat alarm, on bases fixed to circuits that have been tested. A garden room or annexe off Outwood Lane is included only when somebody sleeps there. These heads do not inspect the older cabling behind a consumer unit, and they do not test the feed to a stable. The long supply in from the road is not part of siting a head. ### Place heads from the rooms Bedrooms, the landing and the kitchen decide the heads. A box room used as a bedroom is treated as a bedroom. A cupboard is not. ### Include a sleep space only A garden room is given a smoke alarm when people sleep in it. A stable with no sleeping space is not given a domestic head so the paper looks complete. ### Test the circuits used The circuits the heads sit on are tested. That is not an inspection of every cable in the house, and it is not a certificate for the consumer unit. ## Questions about Chipstead alarms ### Which rooms get a head? Every bedroom and the landing receive a smoke alarm. The kitchen receives a heat alarm. A room nobody sleeps in does not get a smoke alarm just to swell the count. ### What about a garden room off Outwood Lane? If someone sleeps there, it gets a smoke alarm and that circuit is tested. If it is storage, it does not. ### Do the heads prove the old cable is sound? No. Alarms sit on the circuits that feed them. Older cabling behind the consumer unit is an inspection, not a head on the ceiling. ### Is a let house different? The rooms still decide the heads. The inspection a let house needs for its fixed wiring is a separate report, not these alarms. ### Will you cable a stable as if it were a bedroom? No. A stable is not a bedroom. Its feed is not used to justify a domestic alarm layout in that building. ## Other services in Chipstead - [Electrician in Chipstead](https://www.tmbelectrics.co.uk/electrician-chipstead): Electrician in Chipstead, Surrey (CR5) — the Reigate and Banstead village, not Chipstead in Kent.
