Intention to discontinue fire alarm monitoring
Account Services
Should QFRS be advised of the expressed intention to discontinue fire alarm monitoring for your premises, it will be
necessary for the premises owner to complete an Application for Disconnection. This application and supporting
documentation will be forwarded to QFRS Community Safety Operations for assessment.
Disconnection considerations
To avoid any confusion and prevent any delays in the processing of an application please note the following points:
Emergency Contact
Information
Unwanted Alarm
Activations
• Fire Alarm Monitoring for premises may be prescribed under the Building Code of Australia or the Queensland
Development Code (QDC). In this event, failure to be monitored may make the building unlawful to occupy. It
will be necessary for a building certifier to complete the relevant section of the application, or a demolition
permit issued by your local council must be provided;
• It would be considered prudent to take into consideration any impact this may have on insurance for the
building and consult the service provider before initiating disconnection. Please also consider the safety of
the occupants of the building before applying for removal of the alarm signalling device.
