Common Questions

Smoke Alarms FAQs

What are Queensland's smoke alarm laws?

Since 2022, all new builds and properties being sold or leased must have photoelectric, interconnected smoke alarms in every bedroom, hallways, and on each storey. By 2027, all properties must comply.

Do I need smoke alarms in every room?

Queensland law requires photoelectric smoke alarms in every bedroom, hallways connecting bedrooms to the rest of the house, and on every storey — including basements and the garage if it has a habitable space attached.

What is the difference between ionisation and photoelectric alarms?

Queensland requires photoelectric (optical) alarms, which respond faster to slow-smouldering fires. Ionisation alarms respond faster to flaming fires but are slower with smouldering ones — they are no longer acceptable under current QLD law.

Are landlords required to upgrade smoke alarms in rental properties?

Yes. Landlords must have compliant photoelectric, interconnected smoke alarms installed before any new lease is signed or renewed. All rental properties must be fully compliant by 2027.

How long do smoke alarms last?

Most smoke alarms have a 10-year lifespan after which the sensor degrades and they must be replaced. We check the manufacture date during maintenance visits.

Can I install smoke alarms myself?

Hardwired, interconnected smoke alarms must be installed by a licensed electrician in Queensland. Battery-only alarms in some situations can be self-installed, but we recommend professional installation for compliance certainty.

How much does smoke alarm installation cost?

Cost depends on the number of alarms and whether hardwiring is required. Contact us for a free quote — most residential installations are straightforward and affordable.
