Protecting your family – and meeting the rules

In WA, homes must have compliant, hardwired smoke alarms and at least two RCDs before the property is sold, transferred or rented. Many older homes don’t.

We’ll check what you have, explain what’s required and install modern photoelectric smoke alarms and safety switches with minimal fuss.

“Matt and his team from Quantum Electrical Kalamunda are amazing! They have helped us with all things electrical from big to small numerous times and we wouldn’t go with anyone else. They are reliable, honest, upfront and affordable. Nothing was too big or too small of an issue, and they were able to help us with all of our jobs with short notice.

Frequently asked questions

How often should smoke alarms be replaced?

Smoke alarms should be replaced at least every 10 years. Check the date on the back of the alarm – if it’s older than that or has no date, it’s due.

I’m selling my home – what do I need?

Before settlement in WA you’ll generally need compliant hardwired smoke alarms and at least two RCDs. We can inspect, install and provide the paperwork.

Do you look after rental properties?

Yes. We inspect, install and test smoke alarms and RCDs so rental homes meet WA requirements.
