The Queensland Fire & Emergency Service is the regulator, and the Queensland Government is the legislator. This legislation is being phased in and we are now entering the final phase which affects owner-occupiers.
By 1st January, 2027 owner occupiers and all Queensland dwellings must have photoelectric, interconnected smoke alarms in the bedrooms, outside of the bedrooms and at least one on every level of the dwelling.
If you are selling a house in Queensland, you must comply with the new Queensland smoke alarm laws. If you don’t then the buyer can penalise you .15% of the contract price at settlement.
If you are a landlord then you must comply by the next lease renewal from 1.1.22 or before a new lease commences from 1.1.22.
Non-compliance could result in an infringement notice from the QFES
QFES's new smoke alarm laws aim to enhance Queensland homes' safety, mandating interconnected photoelectric alarms for early fire detection and safer evacuations.
I'm in the process of selling my home and needed to upgrade my smoke alarms. The online booking system was easy to use and the technician arrived on time. Pricing was confirmed after assessing what upgrades were needed for compliance and the required work was completed efficiently. Would use this service again.
I was very happy with the installation of my smoke alarms by Fernando. The job was efficiently carried out from getting the quote to the installation. Would highly recommend them.
Qld Smoke Alarms responded to my query promptly and organised an appointment quickly. The technician completed the work efficiently and took the time to explain how they were set up. He ensured that they met Qld Govt Legislation. I highly recommend Qld Smoke Alarms to anyone needing help with installation.
Excellent service. The technician was punctual, polite, efficient and friendly, and took time to explain my new alarm system to me. Much appreciated.
From quote to install, quick, reliable and professional.
Great service at short notice. Gave good advice to save us a bit of money. Arrived on time and completed the work quickly
Our mission is to protect the lives of Queensland residents, by upgrading existing smoke alarm systems to interconnected systems that rapidly alert occupants to the early stage of a potential fire in their home and to protect them from electrocution by testing and installing electrical safety switches.
