A 2510 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Concerns carbon monoxide detectors in certain multiple dwellings and certain hotels.

This bill requires new hotels and multiple dwelling units (like apartment buildings) to install monitored carbon monoxide detectors that automatically alert emergency services if dangerous levels are detected. It applies specifically to newly constructed buildings built after the bill's enactment date. The key mechanism mandates that if a new building already has a monitored fire alarm system (which alerts the fire department), it must also include a monitored carbon monoxide system with the same emergency alert capability. The detectors must meet Underwriters Laboratories standard 2034 and be installed per rules set by the Community Affairs Commissioner.
