Michigan SB0515 mandates landlords to install carbon monoxide detectors in rental units with fuel-fired appliances or adjacent to enclosed garages.

Michigan SB0515 amends the existing landlord-tenant law by requiring landlords to install at least one operational carbon monoxide detector in every rental unit that has a fuel-fired appliance or is adjacent to an enclosed garage. The detectors must be certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory and provide a distinct audible signal. Landlords who fail to comply face a state civil infraction and a potential fine of up to $500.00.
