Smoke Alarm Installation FAQs

How often should smoke alarms be replaced?

Many smoke alarms should be replaced every ten years or earlier if they are damaged or no longer work. Check the date printed on the alarm and follow the manufacturer advice. An electrician can confirm if your alarms are due for replacement.

Do I need hard wired smoke alarms?

Some building rules and rental requirements call for hard wired or interconnected alarms. An electrician who works in your area can explain what is required and suggest suitable options for your home or unit.

Where should smoke alarms be installed?

Alarms are often required in hallways outside bedrooms and on each level of the home. Exact locations depend on the layout and local rules. Your electrician can recommend positions that give early warning without causing constant nuisance alarms.

What information should I include when posting a smoke alarm job?

Share how many alarms you have now, their age if known, the property type and whether you need a simple install or a full compliance check with a written note or report.
