Smoke Alarm

A sealed 10-year optical smoke alarm from one of the UK's best-known fire-safety brands. Fit and forget: the lithium battery lasts the alarm's whole life, so there are no flat-battery chirps to tempt you into taking it down. Thermoptek sensing is designed to react fast to real fires while shrugging off cooking steam.

• Sealed 10-year battery — no changes, no 3am low-battery chirps
• Thermoptek optical sensor reacts quickly to smouldering house fires
• Test and silence button so nuisance triggers don't get it disabled

A sealed 10-year smoke alarm with no batteries to remember to change, which is exactly why UK fire services recommend this type. You fit it once and it quietly watches over a hallway or landing for a decade. The most basic piece of home safety kit, and the one most homes still get wrong.

• Sealed lithium battery lasts the alarm's full 10-year life
• No annual battery changes to forget
• Loud 85dB alarm with a test/hush button

A single mains-independent unit that detects both smoke and carbon monoxide and pushes alerts to your phone over Wi-Fi. It's the sensible choice if you want one device covering two silent household risks and a warning even when you're out of the house.

• Detects smoke and carbon monoxide in one unit, saving wall space and cost
• Wi-Fi alerts to your phone so you're warned even when away from home
• Long-life sealed battery means no fiddly annual battery changes

A ten-pack of 3M's valved FFP2 disposable respirators, the kind you want on hand for dusty clean-up after a flood, storm damage or DIY. The exhalation valve makes them easier to breathe through during longer jobs, and FFP2 filtering handles fine dust and non-oily particles. Not a substitute for FFP3 where finer protection is needed, but a sensible general-purpose layer.

• Genuine 3M FFP2 filtering for fine dust and debris clean-up
• Exhalation valve reduces heat and moisture build-up on longer jobs
• Ten to a pack, so there's always a fresh one in the kit

CE-certified valved FFP3 respirators that filter ~99% of fine airborne particles — dust, smoke and debris — with an exhalation valve and adjustable seal for comfortable, protective wear.

• Genuine FFP3 filtration (~99%)
• Exhalation valve for easier breathing
• Adjustable nose clip for a proper seal

A reusable half-mask respirator with A1P2 filters, so it handles both dust and organic-vapour fumes rather than particles alone. Reach for it during dusty clean-ups, mould removal, spray painting or working with solvents. The replaceable-filter design makes it cheaper over time than getting through boxes of disposables.

• A1P2 filters guard against dust and organic vapours
• Reusable body with replaceable, low-cost filters
• Twin-filter layout for easier breathing during long jobs

A battery carbon monoxide alarm with a sealed 10-year cell, so there is nothing to replace for the life of the unit. The LCD shows the current CO reading and there is no wiring to do, which makes it easy to add near a boiler, wood burner or portable stove. A basic safety item worth having anywhere fuel is burned indoors.

• Sealed 10-year battery, no cell changes for the unit's life
• LCD shows live CO readings, not just an alarm state
• Battery-only fitting means no wiring or electrician

A compact 1kg ABC dry powder extinguisher with a pressure gauge and steel wall bracket, sized for the home or car. Rated for solids, flammable liquids, gases and safe on electrical fires — the versatile all-rounder for household fire safety.

• ABC rating covers most household fire types
• Safe to use on electrical fires
• Pressure gauge shows it is charged at a glance

A mains-powered carbon monoxide alarm with battery backup from FireAngel, a well-known UK safety brand. Because it is wired to the mains it is suited to a fixed installation near a boiler or gas appliance, with the backup cell keeping it working through a power cut. A sensible option if you would rather not rely on a purely battery-powered CO alarm.

• Mains-wired with battery backup for continuous protection
• From FireAngel, an established UK home-safety maker
• Keeps monitoring through a power cut, when heating risks can rise
