Who is required to have an AED in South Australia?
According to publicly available SA Health information, new AED requirements apply to a range of South Australian workplaces from January 2026. Many commercial, multi-storey, and public-facing sites are included.
SafePulse does not provide legal advice, however we can review your site details and give guidance based on the public criteria shared by SA Health. If you need legal confirmation for your business, it is best to speak with a property or legal professional.
How do I know if my building is compliant?
AED compliance in South Australia depends on factors such as your building size, floor layout, and public accessibility. We can review your property details and compare them with the public SA Health guidance to help you understand what may be required.
For formal legal confirmation of compliance, we recommend seeking independent legal advice.
What’s included in an AED installation?
Our AED installation service covers everything needed to get your AED set up and ready for use. This includes cabinet mounting, green AED signage, placement guidance based on industry best practice, and registration of your unit with the SA Ambulance Service AED Registry.
You also receive a maintenance plan to keep the unit operational and monitored.
Can SafePulse manage multiple sites or large property portfolios?
Yes. We work with landlords, property managers, corporates, and organisations that oversee many buildings.
We can assess your entire portfolio using SA Health’s public guidance, coordinate installations across sites, manage scheduling with tenants, and handle ongoing maintenance for each AED across all locations.

How long does AED installation take?
Most single-unit AED installations are completed within 1–2 hours, including cabinet mounting, signage placement, and a brief orientation for your team. Larger sites or multi-unit installations may take longer depending on the number of devices and locations involved.
How do I handle the AED Registration with SA Ambulance?
AEDs should be registered with the SA Ambulance Service AED Registry so they are visible to emergency services. This visibility means that SA Ambulance can instruct the public to the closest AED location in an emergency, before emergency services arrive with their own equipment.
When SafePulse installs your AED, we handle the registration process on your behalf.
Does my AED need to be publicly accessible?
For buildings covered under SA’s AED requirements, the AED should generally be accessible to the public during operating hours. SA Health’s guidance emphasises visibility and accessibility so the device can be reached quickly in an emergency. SafePulse can advise on placement options that balance accessibility with security.
What size building requires an AED in South Australia?
SA Health’s publicly available guidance indicates that commercial buildings with 600 m² or more of publicly accessible floor space are generally expected to have at least one AED. Multi-storey buildings may require additional units depending on floor area. SafePulse can review your property details and provide recommendations based on this publicly available information.
What signage is required for an AED?
AEDs should be clearly marked with standardised green AED signage so they can be located quickly in an emergency. SA Health’s guidance emphasises visibility and accessibility. SafePulse includes compliant AED signage with every installation, positioned to direct people to the device from key access points.
Do AEDs require ongoing maintenance?
Yes. AEDs need regular checks and replacement of pads and batteries to stay operational. Industry practice and manufacturer guidelines recommend routine servicing.
SafePulse provides six-monthly maintenance visits to test the unit, replace consumables when needed, update your records, and help ensure the AED stays ready to use.
What happens if my AED is used in an emergency?
If your AED is activated, let us know as soon as possible. We will inspect the unit, replace used consumables, verify functionality, and restore readiness.
A small call-out fee may apply for the visit. Consumables are covered if you’re on an active maintenance plan.
