Smoke alarms when replacing or changing rooms
A chirping alarm may have a battery, age or fault issue; it should not simply be disabled. Check the model and any date visible without taking risks. If alarms are hardwired, use a licensed electrician for wiring or replacement work.
Before you agree to the work
Tell the provider whether the property is rented, being sold or owner occupied. Ask which alarms will be checked or replaced, how they connect and what testing and documents follow.
Current suburb boundaries matter
Council notes that the modern Loganlea suburb is smaller than the older area with that name. Loganlea Road has long been a main route to Waterford. Sturdee Park is in Loganlea on Sturdee Street. Use the actual address and floor layout when planning alarms, rather than a broad district name.
