• Interconnect with your smoke alarms

Why You Need One

What does upgraded mean?
An upgraded home complies with the latest requirements of the Fire and Emergency Services (Domestic Smoke Alarms) Amendment Bill 2016. Under this law, smoke alarms in properties for sale must be photoelectric, less than 10 years old, and meet the Australian Standard 3786:2014. They must also be interconnected so that all alarms activate simultaneously and be either hard-wired or powered by a non-removable 10-year lithium battery, or a combination of both.
In terms of placement, smoke alarms must be installed on every storey, in each bedroom, and in hallways that connect bedrooms to the rest of the property. If there is no hallway, the alarms should be positioned between the bedrooms and other areas of the storey.
It is important to note that existing hard-wired 240v alarms must not be replaced with wireless alarms. However, if you are installing an alarm in an area that currently has no alarm or only a 9v alarm, you may choose either a hard-wired or a 10-year lithium wireless alarm.
Do My Sellers Need to Upgrade Their Smoke Alarms Before Selling?
Yes, as of January 1, 2022, all properties being sold must have hardwired, photoelectric, and interconnected smoke alarms that comply with Queensland’s latest legislation. It is the seller’s responsibility to ensure compliance before settlement.
To meet legal requirements, smoke alarms must be photoelectric (AS3786-2014) and cannot contain an ionisation sensor. If existing alarms are hardwired, they must be replaced with hardwired alarms. Otherwise, alarms can be either hardwired or powered by a non-removable 10-year battery, or a combination of both. All alarms must be interconnected so they activate simultaneously.
Smoke alarms must be installed on every storey, in each bedroom, in hallways connecting bedrooms to other areas, and if there’s no hallway, between bedrooms and other parts of the property. If there are no bedrooms on a storey, at least one smoke alarm must be installed along the most likely exit path.
If a seller’s current smoke alarms don’t meet these standards, they must be upgraded before the sale. Coast Smoke Alarms can handle the entire process quickly and efficiently, ensuring compliance without delays to settlement.
When do the smoke alarms need to be upgraded by?
A property must have the upgraded smoke alarms installed before settlement.
Don’t let smoke alarms delay your sale or risk a 0.15% non-compliance deduction from your settlement money.
Do your prices include GST and installation?
Our upgrade prices are per alarm and include GST and installation. There are no hidden costs.
Which smoke alarm is best?
While the cheapest model on offer may be tempting, it is not always the best value. Quality smoke alarms may require more of an initial investment, but their higher quality components cope better with the harsh, humid Queensland environment.
