Massachusetts Smoke & CO Detector Regulations

One of the advantages of using The Smoke Detector Guy (Previously Smokes & COs) as your inspector/installer, is that we keep on top of these ever-changing regulations. Every town has its own codes and often their websites are not up to date with their new by-laws, etc. However, our close relationship with many local municipalities’ fire departments keeps us well informed. These regulations can also be confusing if you’re not used to the lingo they use, so if you have any other questions or concerns about the regulations set in place by your town, visit the Mass.gov site and read more about the smoke detector regulations, or give us a call.
