Hi All Landlords,
If you currently own and are renting out properties, please note the following:
Landlords in England have since October 2015 been required to install carbon monoxide alarms in their residential rented accommodation where a solid fuel solid fuel heating appliance was fitted.
This would include all open fireplaces that were available to be used, that is where the flue was not blocked off.
The new regulations now drafted extend the requirement for these alarms to be fitted where there is any type of fixed combustions appliance, such as gas heaters, cookers and boilers. A Draft Statutory Instrument was laid before Parliament on 11 May 2022. When approved this amendment will come into force on 1 October 2022.
