In conflict with what Sara posted & reread the OP by Anonymous on February 5, 2012 @15:22

                              
Sara posted this: "(Cal Courts have found that 'occupants' is related to those instances of spaces that are used for non living areas such as offices, business's, storage facilities, garages etc.)"

What you posted above about "occupant" is in conflict with that.

The original post referenced a tenant question about having to maintain the fire extinguisher, which the LL provided, because that "maintenance" was in the rental agreement he signed.

How about you answering questions? Why don't you supply a fire extinguisher and maintain it for your tenants regardless of what the law or code requires? Why do you feel that it's the tenants responsibility to provide a fire extinguisher and not you? What happens when you have an electrical fire because of faulty wiring in your rental and a fire extinguisher could have contained the fire damage? What happens if the dryer vent line catches fire and you have no fire extinguisher to limit the damage? What happens if the oven catches fire and the damage could have been handled by a fire extinguisher? What happens if the grill on the deck catches your house or deck on fire and the lack of no fire extinguisher prevents the fire from being controlled? What happens when the lawnmower catches fire next to the garage because of a leaking fuel line? Do you thing that a twenty dollars fire extinguisher is too much trouble to provide? As you stated a great tenant is one who doesn't bother the landlord with such stuff! You would probably be the last one to find out your rental was on fire!

    Betty, you must have misunderstood so many of the posts. The LL did supply a fire extinguisher. The tenant was asking if they had to comply with the rental agreement they signed, about having it checked every year.

      "Betty, you must have misunderstood so many of the posts... agreement they signed, about having it checked every year."

      Actually, the agreement was to have the fire extinguisher refilled or recharged each year. The landlord wants it refilled if it was discharged or recharged once each year if not used to insure it will function properly when needed.
