Frequently Asked Questions

When do Queensland smoke alarm laws change again?

The final rollout phase of Queensland's smoke alarm legislation takes effect from 1 January 2027. From that date, all owner-occupied homes must have interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms installed in every bedroom, hallway and on each storey.

This brings all homes into line with the current rules already required for rentals and properties being sold or leased. Preparing early avoids last-minute stress and ensures you're already protected.
Are photoelectric smoke alarms better than ionisation alarms?

Yes, photoelectric smoke alarms are more effective at detecting slow-smouldering fires, which are the most common type in residential settings.

They respond faster to visible smoke, giving more warning time. In contrast, ionisation alarms respond best to fast-flaming fires but are slower with smouldering fires and more prone to false alarms from cooking.

Queensland law now mandates photoelectric alarms only due to their better performance and safety.
How many smoke alarms should I have in my house?

Under Queensland regulations, a smoke alarm must be installed in each bedroom, in hallways connecting bedrooms, and on every level of the home. If there’s no hallway, place the alarm between the bedrooms and the rest of the house.

Multi-storey homes need alarms on each level. The number depends on your layout, but it’s important that all alarms are also interconnected to provide full coverage.
What should I do if my smoke alarm goes off for no reason?

Frequent false alarms can be caused by dust, insects, steam or a faulty unit. First, clean the alarm with a soft brush or vacuum to remove dust or cobwebs.

Check that it’s not placed too close to a kitchen or bathroom, where steam or cooking smoke might set it off. If issues continue or the unit is old, it’s best to replace it. False alarms should never be ignored.
