Fire Detection

FireProtect is a photoelectric smoke alarm, detecting smoke with a sensor. If no smoke is detected, the built-in heat sensor monitors for sudden temperature increases. When the temperature surpasses 60°C or rises by 30°C within 30 minutes, FireProtect identifies it as a critical spike and triggers an alarm, ensuring comprehensive fire detection even under conditions with low smoke particles.

False Alarm Prevention

To reduce false alarms, FireProtect employs the HazeFlow algorithm—a specialised software solution for verifying smoke. This means that the smoke detectors disregard the initial detection and only trigger the alarm if smoke is still present after 30 seconds during a second check.

Interconnected Fire Alarms

FireProtect supports interconnected smoke alarms, installed to ensure if any single detector in the system is triggered, all built-in buzzers activate across every device. This ensures a rapid, system-wide alert that can warn as many people as possible in the event of a fire.

Smoke Alarm Installation Brisbane - FAQs

At ProCCTV, we understand the importance of staying informed on the process of installing a smoke alarm. To help you navigate the requirements and ensure your property is fully protected, we’ve answered some of the most common questions.

  • While some smoke alarms can be installed by homeowners, it's generally recommended to have a professional smoke alarm installer handle your smoke alarms, especially if they are hardwired smoke alarms or part of an interconnected system. An electrician ensures the alarms are properly installed, wired correctly, and fully compliant with fire safety regulations, reducing the risk of faulty smoke alarms.

  • If you're installing battery-powered smoke alarms, you may be able to do this yourself. However, for more complex installations, such as hardwired smoke alarms or interconnected alarms, it's safer to hire a professional. Our certified smoke alarm installers will ensure that the alarms are properly connected, functioning, and compliant with any new smoke alarm legislation in Queensland.

  • Not all smoke alarms need to be hardwired. While hardwired smoke alarms are often preferred for larger homes or commercial buildings, there are also wireless and battery-operated options available. The choice depends on your specific needs, the layout of your space, and your preferences for ongoing maintenance.

  • The best type of smoke alarm is one that suits your environment and fire safety requirements. Photoelectric smoke alarms are highly effective at detecting slow-smoldering fires, and are often recommended for homes. FireProtect by AJAX, for example, uses a photoelectric sensor combined with a heat sensor to offer comprehensive fire detection. Additionally, interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms provide an added layer of protection, ensuring that all alarms in the system sound off if one is triggered.

  • To maximise their effectiveness, smoke alarms should be installed on every level of your home, inside bedrooms, and outside sleeping areas. For best results, place alarms on the ceiling at least 10-30 cm from the nearest wall. Make sure that all interconnected alarms are strategically placed to alert everyone in the house, especially if a house fire occurs while people are sleeping.

  • Avoid installing smoke detectors in areas where false alarms are more likely, such as kitchens or bathrooms. Smoke alarms should also not be placed in drafty areas near windows, vents, or fans. These conditions can interfere with the proper detection of smoke and heat.

  • QLD smoke alarm legislation requires all homes to have interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms installed in bedrooms and hallways. These alarms must be either hardwired or have a 10-year sealed battery. These new smoke alarm laws ensure better fire safety by making sure alarms are powered and positioned to provide the quickest alert in case of a house fire. Existing homes must also comply with these smoke alarm laws. Our specialist smoke alarm installers at ProCCTV can help ensure that your smoke alarm systems are in line with the current legislation.
