Also, don’t forget to check your carbon monoxide detectors as well. If you have questions about your detector, you can call your local fire department on the non-emergency line.

While Airbnb recommends that hosts install carbon monoxide and smoke detectors—and provides them for free to eligible renters—neither is actually required by the rental platform, per its website.

Make sure you have working carbon monoxide detectors. Push the “Test” button to be sure it’s working properly. Have your furnace or wood-burning stove inspected annually.
