IT is the LAW to
Upgrade your smoke alarms today
From 1 January 2022, landlords must install interconnected smoke alarms in residential rental properties.
When one goes off, they all go off, giving everyone extra time to escape.
All other dwellings must transition to full compliance by 2027.
Don’t leave it to the last minute. You could save a life.
