1 MAYOR GARY O. PHILLIPS VICE MAYOR BARBARA HELLER COUNCILMEMBER KATE COLIN COUNCILMEMBER DAMON CONNOLLY COUNCILMEMBER ANDREW CUYUGAN MCCULLOUGH FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FEBRUARY 6, 2013 FIRE DEPARTMENT FIRE CHIEF, CHRISTOPHER GRAY PHONE: (415) FAX: (415) Carbon Monoxide Alarm Update The State of California passed into law Senate Bill 1394, which provides for some changes to the requirements for both Carbon Monoxide Alarms and Smoke Alarms within dwelling units. The technical requirements of SB 1394 will be included in future versions of the California Building and Fire Codes. One noteworthy change in SB 1394 effects the requirements for hotels and motels. Under the previous regulations, by January 1, 2013 certain hotels, motels, apartments and condominiums were required to have Carbon Monoxide alarms installed. The new regulations now allow hotels and motels to postpone the installation until January 1, Other changes in SB 1394 effect smoke alarms. Under the new law, smoke alarms installed on or after January 1, 2014 must have the date of manufacture, a space for the installation date to be recorded, and a ten year non removable, non-replaceable battery. It also requires that owners of apartments, condominiums, one- and two-family dwelling units that are rentals be responsible for testing the smoke alarms. See the attached summary for more information. FIRE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE 1039 C STREET, SAN RAFAEL, CA
