Article R1331-32

L’installation de chauffage est fixe, adaptée aux caractéristiques du logement, notamment à son isolation et à ses aménagements, et elle assure le confort de ses occupants vis-à-vis du froid. Cette obligation ne s’impose pas aux logements situés dans les collectivités régies par l’article 73 de la Constitution.

Les équipements tels les barbecues, réchauds à gaz mobiles, braseros, ne peuvent être utilisés comme modes de chauffage d’appoint.
