I would. That way no old kit is going to let you down just when you think it is all sorted.i'd say around 20yrs old . Would you reckomend changing the lot ? might be just a quick since i will be moving alarm panel to house a larger cylinder in airing cuboard . For a basic system with 2 remote pads 1 up 1 down , 1 bell box and 6 pir's what system would you go for ?
prob not gunna bother with door contacts for decor reasons but will have a pir covering each door .
At the risk of offending, why ask for advice if you don't want to take it on board?prob not gunna bother with door contacts for decor reasons but will have a pir covering each door .
Makes things messy.was i right in thinking it will mess the system up by not using contacts?
Lads, we are talking a DIY domestic installation here. It's not being fitted to the letter of the standards. A contact on the final exit door isn't even required for this kind of installation. I'm not saying that one shouldn't be fitted, but if the OP wants to start the entry time with the hall PIR, technically, it'll work fine aslong as it's sited correctly.
