At EI Electronics and Aico, our relationship with BSI and the Kitemark programme spans decades - and it remains central to everything we do.
For smoke, heat and CO alarms, certification isn't a formality; it's an independent verification that a product meets the standard required to protect lives. The Kitemark goes further still - it's a mark of sustained quality, consistency, and trust.
Certification status can change. For installers, housing providers, specifiers and homeowners, the BSI Kitemark Directory is the live, authoritative source of what holds current certification. Always check before you specify or fit.

🏘️ Over 250 of Selwood Housing's properties are monitored by HomeLINK technology, with over 2,000 connected devices.
With the technology, Selwood receive weekly reports highlighting properties at higher risk of damp and mould, cold home risk, excess heat, or poor indoor air quality. After one report flagged a steady rise in humidity within a home, Selwood's damp and mould team reviewed the trend and were able to identify a potential ventilation issue 🪟
"After visiting the property, we found the bathroom extractor fan had a fault and wasn’t providing enough airflow. Once the fan was repaired, the humidity levels returned to normal", said Robert McFerran, Senior Damp & Mould Surveyor at Selwood Housing.

@nixonelectrical Hi there,
We don’t recommend our alarms being sited in open ended car ports as a result of them not being IP rated and potentially exposed to the elements, as well as the operating temperature being -10 to 40 degrees celsius.
Hope that helps!
A big thank you to everyone who made this years Damp & Mould Action & Awareness Week such a success. 👏
🗓️ Time to mark your calendar for next year to continue supporting this worthy cause.
