Gas, Electricity and Smoke Alarm Safety Checks

Don’t be a safety doofus. Summon the Safety Ninjas for gas, electricity and smoke alarm checks today!

In Victoria, the law says landlords have to test their rental property’s smoke alarms annually and the gas and electricity systems every two years. Why do you need to do all of this boring stuff? Because faulty smoke alarms, and dodgy gas and electrical systems are basically party invitations for disaster.

Fires from gas and electrical faults can wreck your property, cause major personal injuries, or even take lives (big yikes).

Smoke Alarm Checks: Are Your Alarms Up to Snuff?

If you’re not a trained safety ninja and you’re unsure if your alarms are still in good working order, there are a few things that you will want to consider:

Are your alarms past their prime like a pair of skinny jeans in 2024?
Do your smoke alarms still meet safety standards and hang out in the right spots?
When was the last time you got up on your unstable dining chair (seriously, stop doing this) to test your smoke alarms?

If your spidey senses are telling you that your home may not be safe, it might be ninja time.

Safety Ninja’s smoke alarm ninjas are here to save the day:

We’ll swap out any smoke alarm duds, be they mains-powered or battery-operated.
Need your alarms to comply with the regulations? (Not that you have a choice.) We got you!
We’ll make sure they’re strategically placed throughout your property, like tiny fire alarm sentries.
We’ll even throw in a smoke simulation test (because who wants a real fire to test things out?).
We’ll measure the decibel levels – ensuring your alarms are loud enough to wake a sleeping beauty (or a heavy sleeper).
We’ll give them a good clean because nobody likes a dusty fire alarm.
We’ll check the expiry dates – like checking the milk before pouring your cereal.

Basically, we’ll make sure your smoke alarms are rockstars at a sold out concert and not a snooze fest.

Electrical Safety Checks: Because Sparky the Dog Shouldn’t Be Your Electrician

Faulty wiring is basically a fire hazard waiting to make a surprise cameo into your homelife.

Fortunately for you, regular checkups of switchboards, power points, and all that jazz can help prevent property damage and serious injuries from electrical faults.

Your exclusive electrical safety BFFs are here to keep things safe:

We’ll do visual inspections and specific limited testing (don’t worry, it’s not scary).
We’ll thoroughly examine all the landlord-installed stuff.
We’ll run a comprehensive 42-point assessment – that’s more points than a high school exam.
We’ll visually and physically test switchboards (think of it as an electrical physical).
We’ll check powerpoints and light fittings for signs of overheating or damage – like checking for burnt toast.
We’ll test RCDs (Residual Current Devices). This is just a fancy way of saying we check for sneaky electrical currents.
We’ll do earth testing because a good connection is important (even for electricity).
We’ll even throw in complimentary replacements of faulty standard light switches, power points, RCDs, and circuit breakers (within limits, of course).

With our electrical safety checks, we’ll make sure your home’s electrics are safer than a bubble wrap factory.

Gas Safety Checks: Because Carbon Monoxide is a Silent Killer

The law says gas safety checks are mandatory every two years. Why? Because carbon monoxide (CO) is a sneaky little gas. It’s odourless, colourless, and tasteless. What’s more, many gas appliances can emit CO, putting your tenants at serious risk.

Safety Ninja is your guardian against those sneaky ‘gas’-sassins:

We’ll check the installation of LPG cylinders and appliances.
We’ll make sure there’s proper ventilation for your existing appliances
We’ll inspect gas units for signs of certification (gotta make sure they’re for real)
We’ll service your gas appliances by cleaning them and checking things like the gas supply pressure and burner ignition.
We’ll even do a combustion spillage test to ensure everything is functioning safely.

After our job is done, you’ll get a report with all the required documentation.

Our team of qualified gas-fitters are the heroes that you need to combat those harmful gasses. Our ninjas know the regulations like the back of their hand and will make sure to adhere to all relevant safety standards. With our gas safety checks, we’ll make sure your property is as safe as a bubble bath wrapped in bubble wrap.

We follow Australian Standards AS/NZ 5601 and AS 4575. The Victorian Building Authority and Energy Safe Victoria approve of all our testing methods. The tests listed above are just a summary. Check our Terms & Conditions for more details.
