What smoke and carbon monoxide detector duties does a Nevada landlord have?

Test smoke alarms and verify habitability before each new tenancy. Nevada treats a rental that violates housing or health codes on safety as uninhabitable and requires a smoke detector in every unit of an apartment building with three or more units, so testing every smoke alarm and walking the unit for habitability problems before each new tenancy, and at least once a year, keeps the home safe and gives you a dated record if a tenant later reports a problem.
