Carbon Monoxide Detectors: New Law to Take Effect.
Khanh Lam, a long-time Bluestone & Hockley Real Estate Services Maintenance technician, was pictured installing a carbon monoxide detector in a local condominium in Sunday’s Oregonian. This important task is now mandated by Oregon state law.
The article emphasized changes to Oregon law, which now requires properties with a carbon monoxide source being rented or sold as of July 1st, to be equipped with these detectors. Recent deaths and poisoning due to carbon monoxide moved this law into effect. Many other state legislatives are also passing carbon monoxide protection laws. The Oregonian stated that “450 people die and 20,000 others go to the emergency room every year because of carbon monoxide,” according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
All of the Bluestone & Hockley Real Estate Services Maintenance technicians have experience in the installation of these detectors and are dedicated to the safety and health of our tenants. Over the past few months, Bluestone & Hockley Real Estate Services techs have installed over 30 carbon monoxide detectors and anticipate installing a number more in the coming months.
