WITH Queensland’s updated smoke alarm legislation taking effect from January 1, 2027, now is the ideal time for homeowners to check whether their property meets the new requirements.
Fred from FCV Solutions – Electrical & Data is encouraging residents not to leave upgrades until the last minute, with affordable smoke alarm installations starting from $99+gst, and discounted pricing available for pensioners.
Whether you’re replacing outdated alarms, installing a complete new system, or preparing a property for sale or settlement, FCV Solutions can provide expert advice and compliant installations to ensure your home is ready before the deadline.
Fred says regular maintenance is just as important as having the right alarms installed.
“Smoke alarms are prone to dust, cobwebs and insect build-up, which can trigger false alarms or affect their performance. A simple vacuum around the outside of the alarm every so often helps keep them clean and operating as they should.”
FCV Solutions offers smoke alarm upgrades, replacements, new installations, sale compliance and settlement compliance, helping homeowners, landlords and property sellers meet their legal obligations with confidence.
The business is supported by Voltex Electrical Australia, providing customers with quality products backed by a straightforward seven-year warranty program designed to support Australian tradies.
With the 2027 deadline fast approaching, now is the perfect opportunity to review your home’s smoke alarms, avoid the last-minute rush and ensure your family is protected with a compliant, reliable system.
