What is a Smoke Alarm?
A smoke alarm system is designed to detect smoke and alert occupants to the potential danger of fire. Smoke alarms are a critical component of home safety and must meet strict Australian standards for installation, operation, and maintenance. At REPARE, we specialise in the installation and maintenance of smoke alarms that comply with these regulations to ensure maximum protection for your property.
Key Features of Australian Smoke Alarms:
Compliance with Australian Standards
Smoke alarms are regulated to meet specific requirements, including installation, location, and maintenance guidelines.
Type of Smoke Alarms: Photoelectric Alarms
These alarms use light-sensitive sensors to detect smoke and provide earlier detection, reducing the risk of false alarms.
Recommended Placement
Smoke alarms should be installed in every bedroom, hallways connecting bedrooms to the rest of the home, and on every level of the property. They should be maintained regularly to ensure optimal performance.
Professional Smoke Alarm Installation – Why It’s Essential
In Queensland, the installation of photoelectric smoke alarms is mandatory. Following the introduction of the new fire safety laws from 1 January 2027, all homes in Queensland must have interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms installed in every bedroom, hallway, and on each storey. These alarms are crucial for early detection and provide greater safety for everyone inside the property.
- Photoelectric smoke alarms are proven to detect smoke more quickly, providing earlier warning and potentially saving lives.
- Interconnected alarms mean that when one goes off, all alarms in the house will sound, no matter where you are!
For homeowners, the law requires existing hardwired alarms must be replaced with photoelectric models, and the installation of hardwired alarms must be carried out by a licensed electrician.

What Can Cause a False Smoke Alarm?
While the persistent beeping of a smoke detector can be frustrating, remember that it’s designed to keep you safe. False alarms can happen, but it’s important to treat every alarm with caution and first check for a potential fire, even if you suspect a false alarm.
If you are confident that there is no fire, here are some common causes of false alarms: Smoke or steam from cooking, outdoor smoke, steamy showers, high humidity, water leaks, malfunction, low battery, dust, insects, or particles.
If you experience frequent false alarms, it may be time to inspect the detector, clean it, or replace the batteries. Regular maintenance ensures it continues to function when it matters most.
