Smoke alarm installation FAQs
What type of smoke alarm is required in Victoria?
Victorian regulations require photoelectric smoke alarms. Ionisation alarms are no longer compliant for new installations. All alarms must be interconnected so that when one activates, all alarms in the property sound.
How much does smoke alarm installation cost in Melbourne?
Hardwired smoke alarm installation typically costs $150–$250 per alarm including supply, installation, and testing. Call 0409 422 009 for a quote based on your property size.
Are landlords required to have smoke alarms in Victoria?
Yes. Victorian rental regulations require landlords to install smoke alarms that comply with the Building Regulations 2018. Alarms must be tested and in working order at the start of each tenancy.
Where should smoke alarms be installed?
Victorian regulations require smoke alarms on every storey of a home, in every bedroom, and in hallways connecting bedrooms to the rest of the home. We'll assess your property and advise on the correct placement.
