    You'd be best to check the laws in your own
    town/county/state/province/territory ...
    rather than rely on the opinions here - which could
    be posted from anyhere in the Wide World of Web.

    Hi,

    I meant 'needed', whether required or not by local regulations.
    Regardless, here's what I found about 'required'.

    The state in question is California. Here's a link. https://sbcfire.com/frequently-asked-questions-faq-on-carbon-monoxide-co- devices/

    At the beginning of the article, the answer is yes, a carbon monoxide dectector is required if there's an attached garage or fossil fuel burning appliances in the dwelling. Makes sense.

    "As of July 1, 2011, the Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Prevention Act (Senate Bill- SB 183) requires all single-family homes with an attached garage or a fossil fuel source to install carbon monoxide alarms within the home."

    From the above, I assume a carbon monoxide detector is not required if a
    home is all electric and there's no attached garage.

    Later in the article, though, it says a carbon monoxide detector is
    required in all homes.

    "SB-183 is also known as the oCarbon Monoxide Poisoning Prevention Acto
    This senate bill requires that a carbon monoxide (CO) device be
    installed."in all dwelling units intended for human occupancy."

    Do you have a gas powered car in the garage?

    Do you eat a lot of beans and cabbage?

    Incited my interest and I just googled my state of Delaware and they are required with an attached garage. I had gone all electric over a year
    ago when a heat pump replaced my oil furnace.

    "Is it needed" is different from "is it required."

    Do US lawmakers comply with their own tyrannical laws and mandates?

    Did Nancy Piglosi follow the law while she executed her insider trades?

    Will she ever be brought to justice?
