Construction Code Advisory – CO & Smoke Alarms

·

·

On May 5, 2026 Saskatchewan introduced Henry’s Law, a regulatory amendment to strengthen requirements for carbon monoxide (CO) detection in multi-unit residential buildings (MURBs)
What does this mean for you?
  • Owners of all new and existing multi-unit residential buildings are required to comply by November 1, 2026
  • Each suite within a MURB must have at least one CO alarm installed in the suite. This change augments regulatory amendments made in 2022 that made the installation of CO and smoke alarms retroactive in all existing buildings
  • MURBs include condominiums, apartments, motels, hotels and all other buildings with multiple residential suites
