What Type of Smoke Alarms Do You Need?

Photoelectric Smoke Alarms

Recommended by fire departments and now required under QLD legislation. These detect visible particles of combustion — ideal for smouldering fires that happen while you sleep.

We use only Australian-approved, photoelectric models that meet AS 3786:2014 standards.

Interconnected Alarms

All alarms must “talk” to each other. If smoke is detected in one room, every alarm in the house sounds. Our smoke alarm installation gold coast service ensures correct placement, safe wiring, and wireless interconnect where appropriate.

10-Year Lithium Battery Alarms

Even when mains-powered, Queensland law requires backup batteries. We install 10-year lithium options no annoying chirping or constant replacements.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It's always great to have Matt and his boys do work for us!! With great communication, after we've been pencilled in, he always touches base to confirm the date of works. They are very knowledgeable, professional and do a great job.
They did a fantastic job on the renovations of our unit. Installed an air conditioning unit, lights, heated towel rails, wired up oven, microwave and induction hot plate. Photo of our ensuite bathroom attached 😊
I strongly recommend Matt and the East Coast Sparkie team for any of your electrician needs, large or small. Thanks Matt and the team! 😊
