It’s important to ensure the smoke alarms on your property are compliant, meeting current QLD smoke alarm legislation requirements. Smoke alarm laws have recently changed, and our team can help. We can review your installation to ensure your alarms are compliant, and provide you with the expertise for servicing, testing and cleaning your smoke alarms.
Smoke Alarm Compliance
Smoke alarm compliance testing will ensure that your property complies with all federal and state smoke alarm compliance obligations. Smoke alarms must comply with Australian Standard 3786:2014, and be installed in-line with the Building Code of Australia part 3.7.2.3.
Federal and State legislation cover the specific requirement for the installation of smoke alarms. In addition, smoke alarms within rental properties must be tested and cleaned at least once every 12 months, and within 30 days prior to the commencement of a fixed tenancy.
For a fixed annual fee our team of electricians will ensure that you are never non-compliant again. We will schedule a site visit every 12 months, and at no additional charge attend your site within the 12-month period should you require cleaning and testing for a new fixed tenancy commencement. We will also complete a complimentary test of your Residual Current Devices (Safety Switches) while on-site.
Given we only use licensed electricians for the completion of compliance testing, we can replace non-compliant or failed smoke alarms and safety switches immediately.
