Smoke & CO Detector Service
in Denver
Compliant With Colorado Law.
We install and test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors for Denver rental properties to meet Colorado’s rental safety requirements, including current standards for Section 8 units.
What Makes Detector Service Different in Denver
Colorado’s rental detector requirements are specific about placement, and they’ve recently gotten stricter for certain units.
Colorado Law Sets Specific Placement Requirements
Colorado requires a carbon monoxide detector within 15 feet of every sleeping area in a rental unit, a specific placement standard that a generic detector installation doesn’t automatically satisfy.
Section 8 Units Face Additional Requirements
As of the end of 2024, Colorado requires carbon monoxide detectors and smoke alarms in new locations specifically for units receiving Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher or Project-Based Voucher assistance.
A Detector That’s Present but Not Working Doesn’t Count
Detectors that are installed but expired, out of battery, or otherwise non-functional are a common finding during inspections, since a working detector at move-in doesn’t stay working without periodic testing.
I have owned my home since a little before COVID and it was so terrible finding service providers with prices I trusted. I worked with Ben (the Owner) when he was running a landscaping business and when he said he was going to start a maintenance and repair company, I have used him ever since. EASY BREASY, Baby!
