Key Legislation Requirements for NSW Tenancy Compliance
To ensure your rental property is legally compliant, several crucial legislation areas must be addressed. Our NSW Tenancy Compliance Packages are designed to meet these specific regulations:
Smoke Alarm Compliance
The NSW Legislative Standards require Landlords of all residential tenancy & holiday rental accommodation properties ensure an Annual Smoke Alarm Compliance Service, Inspection & Test is conducted. This legally required compliance test MUST include;
- Correct placement, location & number of smoke alarms
- All smoke alarms are not past expiry date (10 years from date of manufacture)
- Alarms tested annually
- Alarms have a decibel reading greater than 85
- New batteries installed every 12 months & with change of tenancy
- A Compliance Certificate/Report is issued annually
Blind Safety Compliance
Landlords throughout Australia have a duty of care to their tenants. One of these duties is to ensure that the residence is free from harm. There are mandatory safety requirements for window coverings.
Window coverings such as curtains, shades and blinds with cords and chains can cause injury and death to young children and babies if they become wrapped around their necks. Strangulation can occur when cords are too long or end in a loop:
Competition And Consumer (corded Internal Window Coverings) Safety Standard 2014.
A corded internal window covering must be installed in such a way that a loose cord cannot form a loop 220 mm or longer, at less than 1,600 mm above floor level.
No part of a cord guide may be installed lower than 1,600 mm above floor level unless the cord guide will remain firmly attached to a wall or other structure specified in the installation instructions when subjected to a tension force of 70 N applied in any direction for 10 seconds; and the cord is sufficiently secured or tensioned to prevent the formation of a loop 220 mm or longer. A cleat used to secure a cord must be installed at least 1,600 mm above floor level.
