Did you know that the Colorado Contract to Buy and Sell Real Estate specifies in paragraph 10.8 that carbon monoxide detectors must be installed in the subject property?
If you are a home seller with their house currently on the market in Colorado, be sure that you have carbon monoxide detectors installed within 15 feet of each bedroom, or in a location as required by the applicable building code.
If you’re buying a home and notice that it does not have carbon monoxide detectors, you should understand that it’s the sellers obligation to install the detectors at their cost. You should not be tricked into thinking that installation of carbon monoxide detectors is one of those negotiable items on your Inspection Objection Notice.
