be the responsibility of the property owner to secure
the services of qualified licensed professionals for the
installation of hard-wired carbon monoxide detectors.
a. In the event that the side wall, horizontally
vented, gas-fueled equipment is installed in a crawl
space or an attic, the hard-wired carbon monoxide
detector with alarm and battery backup may be
installed on the next adjacent floor level.
b. In the event that the requirements of this
subdivision cannot be met at the time

sign shall read, in print size no less than one-half (1/2)
inch in size,
“GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP
CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS.”
4. INSPECTION. The state or local gas inspector of the
side wall, horizontally vented, gas-fueled equipment
shall not approve the installation unless, upon
inspection, the inspector observes carbon monoxide
detectors and signage installed in accordance with the

1. The referenced “special venting system” instructions
shall be included with the appliance or equipment
installation instructions; and
2. The “special venting systems” shall be Product Approved
