An Act relative to the requirement of fuel gas alarms/detectors

This bill requires all buildings with gas-burning equipment (like furnaces, water heaters, or fireplaces) to install certified fuel gas alarms/detectors that meet UL or ETL standards. It directly affects property owners, landlords, and installers by mandating working detectors before rentals begin, annual maintenance, and end-of-life battery replacement. Key provisions include phased compliance timelines, standardized installer certifications, mandatory fire department inspections at property sales, and alignment with NFPA 715 installation standards. The law also requires the board of fire prevention to set specific rules for installation, location, and maintenance.
