Colorado Smoke & CO detectors
Does a landlord have to provide smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Colorado?
In a rental unit with fuel-fired appliances or an attached garage, the owner must replace any missing or non-working carbon monoxide alarm before a new tenant moves in, provide batteries at move-in, and replace or fix an alarm when the tenant reports a problem.
