You are required by law to install and maintain smoke alarms in your rental property. The minimum legal requirement for all existing dwellings is a 9-volt battery operated smoke alarm that complies with Australian Standards.
A good quality non-removable 10-year battery powered smoke alarm, or a hardwired alarm, is more reliable and effective. You must test and clean each smoke alarm within 30 days before the start of a tenancy agreement.
In addition, you must replace, in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, each battery in the smoke alarm that is flat or that you or your agent is aware is almost flat within 30 days before the start of a tenancy.
Smoke alarms must be replaced 10 years after the manufacturers’ date.
When notified by a tenant that a smoke alarm is not operating, you are required to replace that smoke alarm with a photoelectric type that complies with AS3786-2014.
