These <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.scot\/publications\/carbon-monoxide-alarms-in-private-rented-properties-guidance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">updated rules<\/a> gave clarity on previously contradicting guidelines which confused landlords and tenants alike. This addition to the Housing (Scotland) Act 2014 requires landlords to ensure that all properties rented in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Scotland<\/a> are habitable, structurally sound and fundamentally safe. This includes the provision of long-life, sealed battery carbon monoxide detectors.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>What do landlords need to know?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Landlords must ensure that they adhere to these regulations and that suitable provisions are in place for the safe detection of carbon monoxide:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>They must ensure that every room containing a gas-burning appliance (including boilers, fires and stoves) has a sealed battery-powered CO detector. The only exceptions are for gas cooking appliances which do not need any CO protection, as they are used solely for short periods of cooking, rather than longer periods to heat a space.<\/li>\n<li>The removable battery type of detectors (which use AA batteries like in your TV remote) are no longer suitable and should be replaced. This ensures that tenants can\u2019t simply remove the batteries in the event of the detector going off.<\/li>\n<li>There should also be suitable CO detectors installed in any room containing a flue. This means that if you have a boiler in your hall cupboard and the flue runs through a hall and then a bedroom to terminate on an external wall, there must be a CO detector in both the hall and bedroom. This gives the tenants the best chance to detect an issue before it becomes a threat.<\/li>\n<li>All detectors must have a clear installation date and expiry date.<\/li>\n<li>Detectors should also be checked annually as part of the gas safety check to ensure that they are still in date and in working order.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/carbon-monoxide-detectors-what-do-landlords-and-tenants-need-to-know\/installing-carbon-monoxide-detector-gas-care\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6807\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6807\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/installing-carbon-monoxide-detector-Gas-Care.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/installing-carbon-monoxide-detector-Gas-Care.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/installing-carbon-monoxide-detector-Gas-Care-700x350.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/installing-carbon-monoxide-detector-Gas-Care-1100x550.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/installing-carbon-monoxide-detector-Gas-Care-400x200.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/installing-carbon-monoxide-detector-Gas-Care-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/installing-carbon-monoxide-detector-Gas-Care-1536x768.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/installing-carbon-monoxide-detector-Gas-Care-2048x1024.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Landlords failing to adhere to these regulations in any way could have action taken against them by the First-tier Tribunal for Scotland (Housing and Property Chamber).<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Why are these regulations important?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>In 2016 it was reported that an estimated one in 10 Scottish adults has suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning in their home. In addition, studies showed that the likelihood of serious exposure to carbon monoxide in rented properties was three times higher than in other housing provisions.<\/p>\n<p>There has been a huge reduction in carbon monoxide related incidents since these regulations have been in place.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Where should carbon monoxide detectors be installed?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Manufacturer\u2019s guidance should always be followed when installing a CO detector in any property. In the absence of manufacturer\u2019s instructions, the following standard guidance should be followed:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>ceiling-mounted CO detectors should be at least 30cm from any walls<\/li>\n<li>wall-mounted COs should be at least 15cm below the ceiling<\/li>\n<li>both must be fitted away from corners, windows and spaces with restricted air movement like dropped ceilings and alcoves<\/li>\n<li>the recommended distance between an appliance and CO detector is between 1-3 metres<\/li>\n<li>if an appliance is installed in a cupboard or under the stairs, then the detector should be installed outside the cupboard<\/li>\n<li>if an appliance is fitted in a loft space, then you must have a CO detector fitted within 1-3 metres of the appliance within the loft and have an interlinked CO detector sited outside the loft, near the access hatch. These can be either radio frequency linked or hard wired. The reason for this is to ensure that tenants can be clearly alerted of the presence of CO in the loft before it reaches dangerous levels.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/mobile\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment noopener wp-att-2791\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2791\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/latest-apps.png\" alt=\"latest-apps\" width=\"618\" height=\"85\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/latest-apps.png 618w, https:\/\/www.citylets.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/latest-apps-400x55.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Am I responsible for maintaining carbon monoxide alarms?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>If you are a landlord then yes, you are responsible for correctly maintaining and replacing any CO alarms you have within your rental property.
