Legal Requirements in Cowbridge (Wales)
Properties in Cowbridge (Vale of Glamorgan, Wales) fall under Welsh law. The main rules are:
Fire alarm systems
The legal basis is the same as in England: Article 13 of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires appropriate fire detectors and alarms where necessary, and Article 17 requires them to be maintained. The Welsh Government's small premises guide recommends a weekly test using a different call point each time and a six-monthly inspection and test by a competent contractor. BS 5839-1 (non-domestic) and BS 5839-6 (domestic) are the codes of practice referred to in UK government guidance; in rented homes, mains-wired interlinked smoke alarms are required on every storey by the Welsh fitness regulations.
Legislation: Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, articles 13 and 17; Renting Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) (Wales) Regulations 2022 (rented homes). Official source: legislation.gov.uk
Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms
Under the Renting Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) (Wales) Regulations 2022, every storey must have a smoke alarm in working order that is connected to the dwelling's mains electricity supply and linked to every other mains-powered smoke alarm. A carbon monoxide alarm is required in every room (including halls and landings) containing a gas appliance, oil-fired combustion appliance or solid fuel-burning appliance; the regulation's definition of gas appliance includes cooking appliances, so gas cookers are not excluded as they are in England. If these requirements are not met, the dwelling is treated as unfit for human habitation; they have applied to new contracts since 1 December 2022.
Legislation: Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016; Renting Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) (Wales) Regulations 2022 (WSI 2022/6), regulation 5. Official source: legislation.gov.uk
