Queensland law requires photoelectric smoke alarms in all homes. Since 2022, all homes being sold or leased must have interconnected, hardwired photoelectric smoke alarms with battery backup. We install compliant units and issue a Form 16 electrical safety certificate.
Queensland requires a smoke alarm in every bedroom, in hallways connecting bedrooms to the rest of the home, and on each storey. A typical three-bedroom home needs five to seven alarms. We assess your home and map out optimal placement.
Hardwired smoke alarms must be installed by a licensed electrician — it is illegal to do this yourself in Queensland. Battery-only units can be self-installed but no longer meet the legislation requirements for most dwellings.
We recommend monthly self-testing using the test button, and an annual professional inspection. Alarms should be replaced every 10 years regardless of condition. We offer a maintenance plan and send reminders when your alarms are due.
