Can the maintenance fund be used to replace the monitoring equipment in the community?

Legal analysis: Yes. The maintenance fund can be used to maintain the monitoring equipment in the community. But it depends on the specific situation, whether the warranty period has passed. If it is only general maintenance, the replacement of individual parts should be the responsibility of the property company and paid from the property fee. Only large-scale renovation and large-scale equipment replacement can use the maintenance fund, but it must be signed by more than two-thirds of the owners.

Legal basis: Article 278 of the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC). The following matters shall be decided by the Owner:

(seven) renovation of buildings and their ancillary facilities;

(eight) change the use of * * * or use * * to engage in business activities;

(nine) other major matters related to the management rights of * * * and * * *.
