From Bay Area Ridge Trail to the Western Railway Museum and more, there are plenty of things to do in Fairfield for its residents, and for those who visit every year. When visitors come to the area, there is also no shortage of hotels and many of them have pretty big names, including the Hilton and Marriott. Many of these hotels are perfectly safe and provide great accommodations for visitors. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. There are many different types of accidents that can occur in a hotel. Slip and falls are one of the most common, but sadly, carbon monoxide poisoning also happens far too often. If you or someone you love has suffered as a result of exposure, our Fairfield hotel carbon monoxide poisoning lawyer can help you claim the full damages you deserve.

Carbon monoxide is known as the silent killer because when people inhale too much, it can be fatal and result in a wrongful death. Even when a person survives exposure to this gas, the negative health effects they will experience can be catastrophic.

Carbon monoxide poisoning happens in a number of different ways in hotels. Like other facilities, hotels have many different areas where carbon monoxide is present. These areas must be properly ventilated or overexposure can occur. Utility rooms, pool areas, parking lots and garages, and generators all emit carbon monoxide and can become dangerous for any guests on the property. If you or someone you love suffered injuries resulting from any of the above hazards going unchecked, reach out to a Fairfield hotel carbon monoxide poisoning attorney today.

California law requires all hotels in Fairfield, and throughout the state, to install carbon monoxide detectors in every room. Every carbon monoxide detector that is installed must be approved by the State Fire Marshal. Hotel owners must also inspect and test their carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure they are in proper working order. When they fail to meet these requirements, hotel owners are considered negligent and can be held accountable for paying damages.

When a carbon monoxide detector is defective, both hotel owners and the manufacturer of the device can be held liable. The manufacturer can be held liable for selling a defective carbon monoxide detector. Due to the fact that hotel owners are responsible for inspecting and testing their detectors, they can also be held liable because they should have found the defect prior to someone becoming sick.
