Several studies have concluded that when working smoke alarms are present, the chance of fatalities from the fire is cut in half. The smoke alarms currently in place have saved thousands of lives.

Beginning in July 2011, Virginia Law § 15.2-922 requires landlords to:
Place smoke detectors in all rental property
Have smoke detectors inspected annually AND before new tenants move in
Provide their tenants certification that all required smoke detectors have been installed and inspected, and are in good working order
Having these inspections done annually keeps tenants safe and reduces the potential liability of landlords
Complying with the law can place an additional burden on busy landlords and property managers. To make compliance easy and worry-free, contact us at 757-576-8565.
