Smoke Alarms & Compliance

Smoke Alarm Installation
Northern Rivers NSW.

Interconnected photoelectric smoke alarm installation and compliance for homes, rental properties, and businesses. Northern Rivers NSW.

Smoke Alarms

Compliant smoke alarms. Every property.

NSW requires interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms in all new residential builds and significant renovations. Landlords have compliance obligations too. We install, test, and certify smoke alarm systems that meet current NSW requirements, so your property is protected and compliant.

We install hardwired interconnected systems so that if one alarm detects smoke, every alarm in the house sounds. That's what the current standards are moving towards, and what genuinely gives residents the best chance of early warning.

Interconnected photoelectric alarms
