As the summer holidays come to an end and students start to return to their universities or colleges, it’s important that landlords ensure their HMO properties are fire safe. This is because safeguarding your tenants is not only a moral duty—it’s a legal requirement. Fire extinguishers are vital safety devices and must be properly maintained, especially in HMOs where multiple households or shared facilities increase risk.
