Understanding New Mexico Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Laws and Regulations

Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas that lacks any sensory indicators, such as a smell or color. Produced when various common household appliances work incorrectly, carbon monoxide exposure represents one of the most common chemical threats in New Mexico. Carbon monoxide poisoning in New Mexico can happen without victims noticing, until it is too late, and it is the leading cause of poisoning deaths across the country. The burning of wood, charcoal, natural gas, fuel oil, and other common materials can create carbon monoxide within a home.

If you and your family have been exposed to carbon monoxide for an extended period of time, the harm you have suffered can be immense. Medical bills, lost work hours, limited mobility, nerve damage are only a few of the struggles that you may be living with in the aftermath of this chemical exposure.

Understanding New Mexico Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Laws and Regulations

In the state of New Mexico, carbon monoxide exposure is recognized as a dangerous threat, and there are laws and regulations in place to ensure that as few people as possible are exposed to this gas.

Carbon Monoxide Detector Requirements

Because carbon monoxide is undetectable by human senses, installing and maintaining carbon monoxide alarms is a legal requirement in New Mexico homes. If you rent your home, this requirement falls on the shoulders of your landlord in many circumstances. If your carbon monoxide alarm failed to alert you to the presence of the gas due to improper maintenance, a landlord or property manager may be at fault for the injuries you and your loved ones have suffered.

Appliance Standards

As in any state, household appliances sold in the state of New Mexico are required to meet certain safety parameters. If a faulty appliance was the source of your carbon monoxide exposure, the manufacturers of that appliance may be at fault for your injuries. In some circumstances, the sellers of that appliance may be at fault as well.

The laws and regulations surrounding carbon monoxide safety in New Mexico can be complicated. In order to build your strongest case, and understand all options available to you, it is vital to work with New Mexico carbon monoxide lawyers.
