Family escape a fire that broke out in the kitchen.
Thick black smoke filled the kitchen in their house in Perth Road, Plains farm after a fire broke out from an electrical fault.
The advice to be given hear is to ensure your fire detection i.e smoke alarms have mains and battery back up. Fire Alarms, have a fire alarm control panel that will be fed by 240v mains supply, but will also have a battery back up. This is important because as in the instance stated above, the short circuit cause the fire and shorted out the mains supply. if you fire detection is fed by mains only, the smoke detector will not operate to alert you of fire.
Wireless fire alarms fire detection, has only battery for its supply, so will not have any a problem with the situation as stated above.
