Smoke Alarms in Rented Properties

As a landlord or property manager in Queensland, you have a legal obligation to ensure the safety of your tenants by providing compliant smoke alarms in your rental properties. The QLD smoke alarm legislation outlines strict requirements for photoelectric smoke alarms to be installed, their placement, and testing of these alarms. 

Failure to comply can result in hefty fines and, more importantly, put your tenants at risk. Triforce Electrical can help you navigate these regulations, ensuring your properties meet all necessary safety standards. Protect your tenants, your investment, and yourself by scheduling a smoke alarm inspection today.

Smoke Alarm Compliance Certificates

In Queensland, landlords are required by law to provide a smoke alarm compliance certificate before new tenants move into a rental property. This certificate confirms that all smoke alarms in the property meet the stringent requirements outlined in the QLD smoke alarm legislation. 

Triforce Electrical can conduct a thorough inspection of your property's smoke alarms, ensuring they are correctly installed, functional, and compliant. We'll then issue you with the necessary certificate, giving you peace of mind and demonstrating your commitment to tenant safety.
