Targeting homes with PV installations, British General (BG) has unveiled the Combination Smoke & Heat Alarm, designed to protect properties in critical areas such as attics and lofts.
This alarm offers dual detection and advanced functionality through its wireless RF remote capability. Paired with the BG SDMREM remote, users can test and silence alarms remotely, eliminating the need to access hard-to-reach areas such as loft spaces. This suits it for homes with solar energy systems or limited access zones.
The unit features a sealed-in 10-year lithium backup battery, ensuring protection even during mains power outages, with no battery changes required throughout the product’s life. Designed to be hardwired into the mains supply, the alarm seamlessly interconnects with BG’s full range of smoke, heat and CO alarms, delivering whole-home fire safety coverage.
Installation is quick and hassle-free, and the product is fully compliant with BS 5446-2 and EN 14604 standards. Independently tested by TÜV, BG’s latest addition brings together reliable detection, remote control convenience, and effortless installation for residential fire safety.
