Smoke detectors play a critical role in protecting lives and property from the devastating effects of fires. As a trusted electrical service provider, Leading Electrical offers professional smoke detector installation and maintenance services to ensure the highest level of safety in your home or business.
Proper smoke detector installation is key to the effectiveness of all smoke detectors. Our skilled electricians have extensive experience in installing smoke detectors in optimal locations throughout your property. We strategically place them in kitchens, hallways, living areas, and other key areas to provide comprehensive coverage. We ensure that all installations adhere to the latest safety standards and regulations.
For maximum effectiveness, we offer hardwired and interconnected smoke detectors. Hardwired smoke detectors are directly connected to your electrical system. Interconnected smoke detectors are linked together, so when one alarm is triggered, all interconnected units sound simultaneously, providing an early warning system that covers the entire property.
If you have older smoke detectors that are not up to current standards, we can upgrade them to more advanced models with enhanced features. We use high-quality, industry-approved smoke detectors to ensure optimal performance and reliable detection.
Don’t compromise on the safety of your loved ones or your property. Contact Leading Electrical today to schedule a quote.
There are 2 types of smoke detectors available, battery-powered and hard-wired. Either option is legal as long as it complies with Australian Standard 3786:2014.
Battery-powered smoke detectors can be installed by most people, although care must be taken to ensure they are installed securely and optimally positioned.
Hardwired smoke detectors need to be installed by a qualified electrician.
In NSW, smoke alarms can be either battery-powered or hard-wired. Battery-powered smoke detectors are simpler, but they do require additional vigilance when it comes to making sure the batteries have sufficient charge for optimal function.
Hard-wired smoke alarms offer the benefit of being connected to your home or workplace power, meaning you will not need to replace the batteries in your smoke detector.
In NSW homes, one smoke alarm is required on each level. That means if you live in a single-storey home, one smoke alarm is required. For each additional level, an additional smoke alarm is required.
NSW Fire and Rescue provide recommendation over and above the minimum legal requirements. The recommendation is to have a smoke detector in all bedrooms and living spaces as well as your garage.
