  • The Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm (England) Regulations 2022 require smoke alarms on each storey and CO alarms in rooms with a fixed combustion appliance.
  • Devolved nations have their own requirements, including interlinked alarms in Scotland.
  • Alarms must be repaired or replaced when found faulty.
