Carbon Monoxide, Smoke Alarm & Home Safety Rule Watch

Track home fire and carbon monoxide safety rules in the United States. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: smoke and carbon monoxide alarm requirement, placement, interconnection and sealed-battery rule changes by state and city with compliance dates; smoke alarm, carbon monoxide detector and combination unit recalls and failure findings from CPSC, UL and manufacturers; free alarm installation programs from the Red Cross, fire departments and utilities; fire extinguisher, sprinkler and fire escape rule changes; lithium battery storage, charging and disposal rules; space heater, extension cord and holiday lighting safety actions and recalls; new home fire data by cause from NFPA and the US Fire Administration; and landlord alarm, inspection and replacement obligations. Prefer state fire marshals, city codes, CPSC, UL, the Red Cross, NFPA, USFA and established local reporting; ignore product marketing. Put the state, product or program first in the title with the date. Use high severity for a recall of an alarm that fails to sound, a free installation program, or a rule taking effect within 60 days. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who it affects, what to do, the date, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
