Smoke Alarm Testing & Inspection in Adelaide

Smoke Alarm Testing Adelaide – Regulations and Responsibilities

Do you own a commercial or residential property in Adelaide? Are you meeting the smoke alarm regulatory requirements for that property? It may not be an element considered by many landlords, property owners and managers but maintaining and testing a property’s smoke alarms is imperative to ensure the safety of the structure and its inhabitants and keeping above the law.

Every region in Australia operates different specific requirements with regards to smoke alarm testing in dwellings and commercial buildings. In Adelaide, you are required to meet the specific responsibilities set out for the South Australia region. These are:

Homes or rental properties purchased in South Australia before 1 February 1998 need to have a battery powered alarm installed.
Residential properties purchased on or after this date require the installation of a 240 volt mains-powered smoke alarm or a 10-year, non-removable battery powered alarm.
Residential properties built on or after 1 January 1995 in South Australia require the installation of a 240 volt mains powered alarm.
All smoke alarms must be compliant with each element of the AS 3786 standards, including the requirements for regular maintenance and testing. Smoke alarms must be cleaned, and the batteries replace at least annually. They should be tested even more frequently to ensure they are functioning according to all of the manufacturer’s specifications.

Smoke alarms are one of the most critical fire safety measures. Functioning devices have proven time and time again to be the difference between life and death in the event of a fire. That’s why there are such strict standards in place and why landlords, property owners and managers need to make smoke alarm maintenance and testing a high priority.
