Smoke Alarm and Carbon Monoxide Alarm legislation in Italy Hello,I live in the UK and am working on some research on Italy.  I wondered if anyone was able to advise me if there is currently any laws in Italy around owning and siting smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms in your home either as a home owner or landlord? Many thanks!

The short answer is no there isnt.  (There wont be till alarm manufacturers lobby and pay alot of money)  In certain public places there is a requirement, but by no means all.   As far as carbon monoxide alarms - again no, but boilers are now installed on exterior walls.  They are advised if you have portable gas heaters, but not obiligatory.
