What Our Customers Say
FAQ
How often should smoke alarms be replaced?
Smoke alarms should generally be replaced every 10 years, as sensors lose effectiveness over time. Even if the alarm still sounds when tested, it may not detect smoke properly. Regularly checking the manufacture date on the unit ensures your alarms are within their safe operating lifespan and compliant with current safety regulations.
Are hardwired smoke alarms better than battery ones?
Hardwired alarms are often considered more reliable because they are connected to mains power and include battery backup. Battery-only alarms work but rely entirely on batteries being maintained. In many Australian states, legislation now requires interconnected, hardwired alarms for improved safety, ensuring that if one alarm detects smoke, all alarms will sound simultaneously.
Where should smoke alarms be installed?
Smoke alarms should be installed in every bedroom, hallway leading to bedrooms, and on each level of a home. They should be placed on the ceiling, away from corners, fans, or air vents. Interconnected systems are best, as they provide full coverage and faster warning in the event of smoke or fire.
