Are smoke alarms required in rental properties?
Yes. Working smoke alarms are compulsory in all rental homes, including sleepouts, boarding houses and rented caravans. As the landlord you’re responsible for making sure they’re installed and working at the start of each tenancy. We can install compliant alarms throughout your property.
What type of smoke alarm is required in a rental?
New smoke alarms in rentals must be photoelectric and either hardwired or fitted with a long-life (at least 8 years) sealed battery. The older replaceable-battery and ionisation alarms don’t meet the requirement. We install compliant photoelectric alarms so you don’t have to worry about getting the specification right.
Where do smoke alarms need to be installed?
There must be a working smoke alarm within 3 metres of each bedroom door, or in the room where someone sleeps, and at least one on every level of a multi-storey home. We’ll work out the correct placement for your property and install accordingly.
