Bill > SB1115

This bill amends Title 58 (Oil and Gas) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to require the installation of combustible gas detectors in various types of buildings, including residential buildings, multifamily dwellings, dormitories, child-care facilities, lodging establishments, and mixed-use occupancy buildings containing dwelling units. Starting in January 2025, the bill also requires the installation of combustible gas detectors in buildings with assembly, business, and mercantile occupancies. The bill outlines the duties of landlords and tenants regarding the maintenance and operation of the detectors, and it imposes a civil fine of up to $500 for owners who fail to comply with the requirements. The bill also provides some legal protections for property owners and others involved in the installation and operation of the detectors.
