Do you all have CO detector in your rental property?

14/10/2018

Smoke Alarms – Since October 2015, it became mandatory for smoke alarms to be fitted on the floors of all rental properties. 
This also applies to carbon monoxide alarms (in rooms using solid fuels- such as a coal fire or wood burning stove).
Landlords must make sure that smoke/carbon monoxide alarms are working on the first day of the tenancy.

Tenants should take responsibility for their own safety and test the alarms regularly to make sure they are working and tenants should replace the batteries when needed.

A landlord must pay the cost for a new alarm if it is broken or faulty.
