Since the implementation of the ALUR law (Law No. 2014-366 of March 24, 2014, concerning access to housing and urban renewal), the responsibility for installing smoke detectors has shifted from the tenant to the landlord. The tenant is only responsible for maintaining the installation.
Decree No. 2015-114 of February 2, 2015, amending Article R. 129-13 of the French Building and Housing Code, implements this change and adapts the regulatory provisions of the Building and Housing Code.
