   Hi,   
      
   I meant 'needed', whether required or not by local regulations.   
   Regardless, here's what I found about 'required'.   
      
   The state in question is California.  Here's a link.   
   https://sbcfire.com/frequently-asked-questions-faq-on-carbon-monoxide-co-   
   devices/   
      
   At the beginning of the article, the answer is yes, a carbon monoxide   
   dectector is required if there's an attached garage or fossil fuel burning   
   appliances in the dwelling.  Makes sense.   
      
   "As of July 1, 2011, the Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Prevention Act (Senate   
   Bill- SB 183) requires all single-family homes with an attached garage or a   
   fossil fuel source to install carbon monoxide alarms within the home."   
      
   From the above, I assume a carbon monoxide detector is not required if a   
   home is all electric and there's no attached garage.   
      
   Later in the article, though, it says a carbon monoxide detector is   
   required in all homes.   
      
   "SB-183 is also known as the “Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Prevention Act”   
   This senate bill requires that a carbon monoxide (CO) device be   
   installed."in all dwelling units intended for human occupancy."
