Smoke and heat alarm testing for London landlords

A Fire Safety Certificate confirms that all smoke alarms, heat alarms, and carbon monoxide detectors in your London rental property have been tested and are functioning correctly. It is required as part of HMO licence conditions across all London boroughs, and strongly recommended for all landlords as evidence of ongoing compliance.

Our accredited engineers test every alarm using a calibrated aerosol test spray — not just a button press — which confirms the optical or ionisation sensor is responding correctly to simulated smoke particles. We check battery condition, manufacture dates, and positioning compliance against BS 5839-6. The written certificate lists every alarm with its test result.

Legal requirement: The Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm (Amendment) Regulations 2022 require all private landlords to install smoke alarms on every storey and CO alarms in every room with a combustion appliance. Annual testing is required for HMO licences and as evidence of due diligence.

Aerosol test of every alarm

Our engineer tests each alarm using calibrated aerosol spray, checks battery condition and manufacture date, and confirms correct positioning per BS 5839-6. CO detectors are also tested at no extra charge.
