Why Brisbane Southside Trusts P4 Electrical for Smoke Alarm Solutions


When it comes to safeguarding your home or investment property, installing photoelectric smoke alarms in Brisbane isn’t just a recommendation it’s a legal requirement. At P4 Electrical, we bring over a decade of hands-on expertise in designing, installing, and maintaining interconnected smoke alarm systems across Brisbane Southside. From wireless smoke alarm upgrades to full compliance retrofits, we deliver peace of mind.

What Type of Smoke Alarms Are Required in QLD?

Since January 1st, 2022, Queensland legislation mandates that:

  • All new or significantly renovated homes must have photoelectric smoke alarms

  • These alarms must be interconnected, meaning when one sounds, they all do

  • They must be installed in every bedroom, hallway, and storey

  • Wireless interconnected smoke alarms are permitted and often preferred for retrofits

If you're in Brisbane Southside, our licensed electricians ensure your home meets every compliance standard with fast, tidy installations.

The Benefits of Photoelectric Smoke Alarms in Brisbane

Photoelectric smoke alarms detect smouldering fires early long before flames appear. Here's why they're the preferred option:

  • Detect fires from fabric, foam, and furnishings sooner

  • Fewer false alarms than ionization alarms

  • Required under QLD law

  • Safer for sleeping occupants due to faster response time

With a tailored installation from P4 Electrical, we ensure the correct placement and positioning of each alarm for optimal coverage
