New Jersey S1285 requires the installation of fuel gas sensor devices in certain residential structures, including those in buildings with fewer than three units, hotels, and rooming or boarding houses. The local enforcing agency must require the installation of these devices upon the first inspection of a dwelling unit following the bill's enactment. The installation may be deferred to the next required inspection if existing smoke detectors and carbon monoxide sensor devices have sufficient battery life and functional integrity.
