Fire alarm systems is a large subject covering all types of scenario and careful consideration needs to be taken in the design stage as to what type of detection is appropriate to the environment. Traditional point smoke and heat detection are the most common form of detection used in a fire alarm, along with the manual call points.
In specific areas, it is appropriate to use air sampling systems or high sensitivity smoke detection systems, or video fire detection. Also, consideration needs to be in as to whether an area needs to be intrinsically safe to avoid any risk of sparks in high explosive areas. Fundamentally with fire alarm design, it is important that the category of fire alarm is defined by the fire risk assessment.
It is the responsibility of the Fire Risk Assessor to define what category of fire alarm is required.
There are several categories. Usually, the purpose of a fire alarm is to protect life, which is the viewpoint of HSE and legislation, and there are categories 1 to 5 according to the risk.
There are circumstances, particularly in the domestic scene or houses of multi, multiple occupancy, where a BS5839-6 system is suitable, which is interlinked smoke alarms. The advice needs to be taken to ensure that the correct category is specified and that the fire alarm is designed according to that category.
Consideration also needs to be taken in mind where there are high warehouses, such as the potential movement of smoke, and the dangers of stratification.

Fire alarms work by detecting specific signs associated with a fire, such as smoke, heat, or flames. There are various types of fire alarms, each using different technologies for detection.
Fire alarms are used to detect and alert occupants to the presence of fire or smoke in buildings, facilitating a prompt evacuation and notifying emergency services for timely response.
Fire alarms use either photoelectric or ionization sensors to detect smoke. Photoelectric detectors use a light beam that gets scattered by smoke particles, while ionization detectors use an ionized chamber that is disrupted by smoke particles.
Heat detectors are triggered by a rapid increase in temperature. There are fixed temperature detectors that activate at a specific temperature threshold and rate-of-rise detectors that respond to a quick temperature increase.
Performing a weekly fire alarm checklist is crucial for ensuring the proper functioning of the system. Here’s a general checklist you can use, but keep in mind that specific procedures may vary based on the type and model of your fire alarm system:
