Upgrade your smoke alarms today! Schedule your installation with us and receive a $250 subsidy.

All existing homes, townhouses and units must have interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms installed by 1 January 2027 to comply with new safety regulations. If your current smoke alarms do not meet these standards, now is the time to upgrade!

Through the Smoke Alarm Installation Program offered by Home Assist Secure, you may qualify for subsidised installation of these essential smoke alarms. This program aims to make it easier and more affordable to keep your home up-to-date and compliant with the latest regulations.

How does the Smoke Alarm Installation Program work?

If you are eligible, our Burnie Brae team will connect you with a licensed tradesperson who will provide a quote for the installation of the interconnected smoke alarms.

The quote will cover both the cost of parts and labour, ensuring that the work is carried out professionally and in compliance with the new regulations.

To receive the subsidy, your smoke alarm installation must be organised through an approved Home Assist Secure provider. We cannot accept retrospective claims for work that has already been completed, nor can you use your own tradesperson for these services.
