Smoke Alarm Compliance
Legislation applying to Smoke Alarm installation and maintenance is detailed by the Queensland
Government in the Fire and Emergency Services (Domestic Smoke Alarms) Amendment Act 2016 and is available
to view in summary on the Queensland Fire and Emergency Services website. This legislation regulates the type
of smoke alarms that can be used in a residential rental property, where smoke alarms must be positioned,
when replacement of smoke alarms is required and obligations surrounding cleaning and testing.
To comply with current and future legislative requirements, Smoke Alarm Integrity
offers three annual servicing plans, all of which include as standard:
Alarms to AS3786-2014 standard Cleaning and testing Battery replacement Unlimited inspections
