House built after 1997? There are rules around that. Since 1997, the National Construction Code has required all new homes or homes that have undergone major renovations to be fitted with hardwired (240v) smoke alarms with battery backup. And if you’re replacing a hardwired alarm, legislation requires it to be replaced with another hardwired alarm. Why does it matter? Because non-compliant smoke alarm installations can compromise insurance claims and leave homeowners personally liable in the event of an incident. Plus, it’s not just about ticking a box, it’s about protecting your home and the people in it. Stay compliant. Stay safe.
