My rented house caught fire, who is responsible?

After the house is on fire, who is responsible should be analyzed on a case-by-case basis

1. If the fire is caused by your own improper use or management, you shall be responsible for it.

The exhaust fan in the bathroom of my rented house was broken, and it didn't turn after turning on the switch, and my roommate turned on the exhaust fan and saw that there was no response, and then forgot to turn off the switch, causing the exhaust fan to overheat**. Now the house is all burned down and the landlord wants us to admit the full cost of the renovation. Should we take full responsibility?

Specifically, your roommate should be fully responsible.

This is because if the exhaust fan is broken, and you ask the landlord to repair it in time, but he does not repair it in time, on the basis of your no gross negligence, such as a fire, the responsibility lies with the landlord.

As far as the current situation is concerned, this is not the case, and the second exhaust fan is turned on and there is no response, and then I forgot to turn off the switch, which causes the exhaust fan to overheat** This itself is already a major negligence.

So your roommate should take full responsibility.

The exhaust fan is broken, have you asked the landlord to repair it, he refuses or delays repairing, he has to bear part of the responsibility. If it is broken without notifying him, and it is caused by your roommate's man-made operation, of course your roommate will be held responsible, but you don't know who used the fault, so I'm afraid you all have to bear a little responsibility.

My rented house caught fire, am I personally liable?

If it is because you have not used it properly that you have rented the house. It's on fire. Of course you have to be responsible, but if it's the house itself, there's something wrong with it.

caused by misfires. Then the landlord also bears part of the responsibility.

A house fire is something that no one wants to happen, but if it has already happened, you should calmly sit down with the landlord and discuss it together. You said that everything in the house burned down, indicating that the fire is quite big, generally in this case, the fire will come to the scene, then they will issue a fire report, explain the cause of the fire, you will distinguish the cause according to the fire report, and then determine the proportion of losses.

Everything has a cause and effect! Whoever causes the consequences is responsible!

Specifically, you can let the detection be the **is** point, if it is a problem with your charger, you must be responsible, if the line is also a problem and you know, you should prove that you have reacted.

Then it depends on the situation, what if the wire is aging? Well, that's none of your business, if it's a gas leak at home, then you have to be responsible for it according to your own situation!

First of all, it is necessary to detect what caused the fire, and then to say who is responsible, and to deal with such a problem, it is necessary to distinguish responsibility with facts!

Legal analysis: There are a large number of housing rental phenomena, and rental housing fires also occur from time to time. When hearing such cases, the court shall determine liability based on the fire accident certificate of the fire department.

Usually, if a fire occurs in a rental house due to the aging of electrical equipment, the landlord should be liable for compensation. However, if the lease agreement stipulates that the tenant shall manage the electrical circuits and waterways, and that the tenant shall be responsible for repairing the damage, the tenant may be required to compensate for the damage. The key is to look at how the housing lease contract signed by the landlord and the tenant is agreed, and judge the person responsible for compensation according to the contract.

Legal basis: Article 119 of the Civil Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China Article 119 A lawsuit must meet the following conditions:

1) The plaintiff is a citizen, legal person, or other organization that has a direct interest in the case;

2) There is a clear defendant;

3) There are specific litigation claims, facts, and reasons;

4) It is within the scope of civil litigation accepted by the people's court and the jurisdiction of the people's court receiving the lawsuit.

Case 1: The tenant is fully responsible.

Mr. Li rented Mr. Wang's house, and the use of high-power electrical appliances during the rental period caused the fuse to blow, and then Li continued to use high-power electrical appliances instead of copper wires, which finally led to a fire, which spread to the neighbor's house, causing all the furniture and household appliances to be burned.

The court of the case held that when Li rented the house, he should use the rented house properly and use the circuit safely to avoid damage to his own property and the property of others. The house user Li replaced the fuse with copper wire, so that the fuse could not play a protective role, which was the main cause of the short circuit of the wire, and should bear full liability for the damage to the neighbor's property.

Case 2: The tenant is primarily liable, and the landlord is jointly and severally liable.

A landlord rented the house to someone else, and the tenant's house caught fire during the rental, causing heavy losses to the tenant and neighbors. It was determined that the fire was caused by the tenant cooking rice, but the landlord piled up a large number of flammable items such as cardboard boxes on the balcony, which accelerated the spread of the fire and burned the neighbor's property. After the final judgment of the courts of two instances, the landlord bears 20% of the fault liability and the tenant bears 80% of the liability.

Case 3: The landlord of the cheese residue is fully responsible.

Mr. Liu rented a room for Mr. Zhang, and while Mr. Liu was at work, a fire broke out in his home, which not only burned his belongings, but also caused damage to his neighbors. After investigation, the fire department determined that the fire was caused by the aging of the wiring, and the court also ruled that the landlord, Mr. Zhang, was liable for the losses caused by the fire based on the fire certificate. When the parties signed the contract, they did not stipulate who would be responsible for the inspection and maintenance of the house during the lease period, so it could naturally be regarded as the responsibility of the lessor, i.e., Mr. Zhang.

According to the relevant provisions of the Administrative Measures for the Leasing of Commercial Housing, the lessor shall regularly inspect and repair the house so that the house is in a normal and usable state, and the lessor shall be liable for any personal injury and property loss caused by the failure to repair the house in time.

It can be derived from the above three rental housing fire case analysis.

The tenant is generally responsible for renting the house to someone else, and it is generally the responsibility of the tenant after the fire. Legal AnalysisAccording to the relevant laws and regulations, the court usually determines liability based on the relevant documents of the fire department when hearing such rental housing fire cases. **If the cause cannot be ascertained, it shall be determined that the tenant has not fulfilled the obligation of proper custody and shall compensate for the losses caused by the fire.
