What is the point in a domestic property?
If you are home alone why would you even need to use the break glass.
With linked heat/smoke detectors you would not even need the break glass.

In case the detectors don't work..of course.
In a home with everyone asleep in bed a fire at night will kill everyone anyway if the sensors fail. The BGUs wont be activated by the cinder people coming past on stretchers.
re the video, its clear to see this guy has a love of electronics etc, there or lots of people on youtube with gear like this, especialy with my generation.
id suspect his fire system fully works, and i will not take the mick out of anyone for having such a hobby, as it really is very intersting to some people, some spot trains and aeroplanes, others like electronics.

Is that microbore copper tubing for the central heating enclosed in conduit?
There could be an issue if heat melts the alarm cable outer? false alarms?

PVC softens, and ages faster, under heat, but the conductors do not swim through it except under pressure (or certain high-current faults).
I presume the alarm cables are carrying 24v or less, so it is permitted, though not good practice.
It would be preferable to staple the cables so they can't touch the pipes, and to interpose a non-conductive barrier, preferably pipe insulation.
