Hi,
I'm looking to fully open up the ground floor of a small, three storey terrace, but need help with satisfying fire regs.
Do I need to block off the stairs at first floor level, and install some sort of suppression system i.e. sprinklers on the ground floor?
Do the stairs have to be fully enclosed with 60 min fire doors on both floors?
Are sprinkler systems likely to need a tank or is mains pressure usually adequate?
Would the kitchen need external extraction?
Anything else that might be an issue or are there other solutions?
Thanks in advance!
