Electrical service / Smoke & heat alarms

Smoke and heat alarm installation

Alarm type and position depend on the room and the escape route it protects. A useful enquiry starts with the property layout, existing alarms and whether wiring is already present.
01When to enquire

Start with the property and the result you need.

  • Alarms are missing, damaged or at end of life
  • A rental property needs its system reviewing
  • A renovation changes room use or circulation
  • Separate alarms need to be interconnected

02What to expect

A methodical route from enquiry to completion.

01

Layout

Floors, circulation spaces, kitchen and existing detection are reviewed.

Select

Smoke, heat and interlinking options are matched to the location.

03

Install

Alarms and any required wiring are fitted with neat positioning.

04

Test

The system is tested together and basic user checks are explained.

03An important distinction

The right detector belongs in the right place

A heat alarm is commonly considered for a kitchen while smoke detection protects appropriate circulation or living areas. The final arrangement must follow the actual property and applicable requirements.

04Service questions

Before you decide what happens next.

Can existing alarms be replaced?

Yes, subject to checking the current base, wiring, age and compatibility. A mixed system may need a wider replacement to interlink correctly.

Will the alarms be tested together?

Yes. Where alarms are interconnected, the completed system is checked so activation is communicated as intended.
