Although implementation of the legislation which specifies that domestic and residential fire sprinkler systems are mandatory for all new and converted houses and flats has been put back to January 2016, these systems will be required in high risk properties such as care homes, new and converted student halls of residence, boarding houses and certain hostels from April 2014.
