Smoke Alarm Installation Logan

Why Working Smoke Alarms Are Essential in Every Home

Smoke alarms save lives — it’s that simple. In the event of a house fire, a functioning smoke alarm gives you and your family the vital time needed to evacuate safely.

But not all smoke alarms are created equal. And in Queensland, there are now strict laws requiring specific types and placement of alarms in all homes.

At Adapt Energy Solutions, we install, replace, and test smoke alarms across Logan and Brisbane’s southside — keeping your home safe and fully compliant with Queensland regulations.

QLD Smoke Alarm Legislation: What You Need to Know

New requirements (as of 1 Jan 2022 for rental properties and sales):

• All smoke alarms must be photoelectric (AS 3786–2014 compliant)
• Must be hardwired or powered by a non-removable 10-year battery
• Alarms must be interconnected (so if one goes off, they all do)
• Must be installed in every bedroom, hallways outside bedrooms, and on each storey

What about existing homeowners?

By 1 January 2027, all QLD homes must meet the same standard — so it’s smart to upgrade now, especially if you're planning renovations or selling your home.

Where Should Smoke Alarms Be Installed?

Under Queensland legislation, smoke alarms must be installed in the following locations:

• On every storey of the dwelling
• Inside each bedroom
• In hallways that connect bedrooms with the rest of the home
• If there is no hallway, an alarm must be installed between the bedroom and other parts of that storey
• If a storey has no bedrooms, at least one smoke alarm must be placed in the most likely path of travel to exit the dwelling
• These placement rules help ensure that every occupant can hear and respond quickly in the event of a fire — no matter where they are in the home.

We’ll also test and label each unit, and explain how your system works.
