I live in an apartment complex...it is 42 degrees F outside and still no heat.
Is there a temperature that they legally have to turn the heat on?
My apartment manager is a...well not a very good one...asking her is like well asking my wall.
Answer
I live in the USA. During the day it cannot be lower than 65 degrees, and at night no lower than 63 degrees. If there is no change immediately, call the city or village for help. Also, after January 1st 2007, a carbon monoxide detector MUST be installed in all residential housing. Detectors must be within 15 feet of all areas designed for sleeping. This is the landlords responsibility to buy and install, and the tenants must be shown how to test the unit and replace batteries. After that, it is up to the tenant to maintain the unit. If the unit at some point in the future does not function, then the landlord must replace it.

Question about carbon monoxide detector ?
GAB X P
In California, it is the law to install carbon monoxide detectors in addition to smoke detectors in a rental single family unit.
Do I have to replace the smoke detectors I have hard-wired and battery back-up with the new kind which is a combination of smoke-and-carbon monoxide ? Or, can I leave the smoke detectors there and just install the battery operated carbon monoxide ? The big reason is that I saw the new kind--combination carbon monoxide--and--smoke detectors at Home Depot, and they are $ 55.00 each. They are very expensive, therefore,can I just put the cheap kind battery operated ? Thanks
Answer
You are still required to have regular smoke detector, the carbon detector is not a replacement for the regular fire and smoke detectors whichever may apply Commercial properties are required to have all 3 vs residential properties are only smoke, and now carbon detector.
And its really not because you have a risk of carbon poisoning , unless its due to your own negligence
Like bringing your grill indoors to keep warm.Apparently in this day and age no one has learned history
of others doing stupid things and "Hey y''all" watch this was born. So because 9 people across multi states didn't have enough common sense {Its no longer taught" The federal Government made it a law which means every home in the USA rental,commercial, or otherwise, is now required to also have a carbon detector. Just so the few get a little device that says carbon detector on its case is beeping.And they can take their tiny little brain and say that was stupid and run outside call the fire department because they are ignorant . Hence the reason why your now required to have both.
And a whole bunch of new companies and even some that make regular detectors are making billions of tax free dollars on everyone else that have common sense but that's the whole gospel truth of the matter
So do not dis connect the regular fire system you have, add the carbon detector to the current system, that is the new federal rules for everyone one including home owners which are the ones that spurred the creation of the law
hope that helps
