Why working smoke alarms matter in Eltham
Having a functioning smoke alarm is crucial to the safety of your property. In Eltham, where many homes are timber or mudbrick, set among trees and close to bushland, early warning of fire inside the home is especially important.
Larger, multi-level and extended homes are common here too. In those layouts an alarm at one end of the house may not be heard at the other, which is why many homeowners ask about interconnected smoke alarms that all sound together.
The Country Fire Authority (CFA) has clear guidance on home fire safety, smoke alarms and bushfire preparedness that every Eltham household should read.
