Frequently asked questions

Smoke alarms should be tested monthly to ensure they are functioning correctly.

Smoke alarms typically have a lifespan of 10 years. After this period, they should be replaced.

While battery operated smoke alarms can be installed by homeowners, it's recommended to have a licensed electrician install hardwired or interconnected systems to ensure safety and compliance.

Evacuate the premises immediately and call emergency services. Do not re-enter until it's safe to do so.
