Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to upgrade my smoke alarms in Queensland?
Yes. By 1 January 2027, all homes in Queensland must have interconnected, photoelectric smoke alarms installed in every bedroom, hallways, and on each level of the home.
What does “interconnected smoke alarms” mean?
When one alarm detects smoke, all alarms in the property sound at the same time—providing earlier warning no matter where the fire starts.
Where do smoke alarms need to be installed?
Smoke alarms must be installed in every bedroom, in hallways connecting bedrooms, and on every level of the home, including between levels.
Are battery-powered smoke alarms compliant?
Only if they are photoelectric and have a non-removable 10-year battery. Some properties may require hardwired alarms depending on the situation.
When do I need to be compliant by?
All Queensland residential properties must comply by 1 January 2027. Requirements already apply when selling, leasing, or significantly renovating a property.
Can you inspect my current smoke alarms?
Yes. We can assess your existing alarms and provide a compliance report along with recommendations.
Do you provide compliance certificates?
Yes. After installation, we provide documentation confirming your property meets current Queensland smoke alarm legislation.
Why choose a licensed electrician for installation?
Licensed electricians ensure your alarms are installed correctly, safely, and in full compliance with Queensland laws.
