Local smoke alarm installation

Cost of installing smoke alarms

The cost of installing smoke alarms varies depending on the type of alarm and the number needed. On average, homeowners can expect to pay between £50 and £150 per alarm, including installation. Hard-wired systems may cost more due to the additional wiring required, while battery-operated alarms tend to be more affordable.

Who can install a smoke alarm?

Smoke alarms can be installed by professional electricians or certified installers who specialise in home safety systems. It’s important to hire a qualified expert to ensure the alarms are installed correctly and meet safety regulations.

How long does it take to install a smoke alarm?

Installing a smoke alarm typically takes 30 minutes to an hour per device, depending on the type and location. For larger systems that require multiple alarms or hard-wiring, installation may take longer.

Other smoke alarm installation FAQs

Can I install a smoke alarm myself?

Yes, you can install battery-operated smoke alarms, but it’s recommended to hire a professional for hard-wired systems.

How often should smoke alarms be replaced?

Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years, as their sensors degrade over time.

Where should smoke alarms be placed?

Smoke alarms should be installed on every level of your home, especially near bedrooms and kitchens.
