appliance is installed in a dwelling a carbon monoxide alarm must be fitted in the same room as the
appliance. Further guidance on the installation of the carbon monoxide alarm is available in BS EN
50292:2002 and from the alarm manufacturer’s instructions. Provision of an alarm must not be
considered a substitute for either installing the appliance correctly or ensuring regular servicing
and maintenance of the appliance and chimney system.

Work Act are met.
