Who will bear the liability for compensation when the air conditioner falls and hits people?

It is the responsibility of the air conditioner host manager that the air conditioner external machine falls and hits people. According to the relevant laws and regulations of our country, if the air-conditioning host falls and hurts people, the manager of the air-conditioning host shall be liable for compensation. If the victim is killed, it may constitute a crime of negligent death. If the outdoor air conditioner falls and the manager or user cannot prove that he is innocent, he shall bear tort liability.

Legal basis: Article 1253 of the Civil Code stipulates that buildings, structures or other facilities and their shelving and hanging objects fall off and cause damage to others. If the owner, manager or user cannot prove that he is not at fault, he shall bear tort liability. After compensation, the owner, manager or user, if there are other responsible persons, has the right to recover from other responsible persons.

How to interpret it? If the manager and owner of the air conditioner can't produce evidence to prove that they are not at fault, they need to compensate the victims for their losses. Some people may say that it is the wind that is wrong, not yourself. Does the owner also need compensation?

In fact, the strong wind is only the cause. The real reason is that the outdoor air conditioner itself has security risks. As the owner of outdoor air conditioning, he did not completely manage and replace his own shop. This management responsibility includes careful installation and regular inspection. Because the air conditioner was not regularly checked and replaced, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner fell under the strong wind, so it was mainly responsible for this incident.

Under what circumstances can tenants be exempted from liability? Uncle Li lives in a tall building near the street. It snowed heavily that night in January two years ago. When he got up the next morning, the villagers who had breakfast in the street found that an air conditioner had fallen from the shelf on the third floor of the residential building.

Fortunately, the outdoor air conditioner is hung in mid-air by several air conditioning pipes, which is dangerous. At this time, the north wind roared and the air conditioner swayed back and forth on the wall. The citizens were scared into a cold sweat and immediately reported 1 19. Soon, firemen came to deal with the danger.

It turns out that the outdoor air conditioner belongs to Uncle Li. This air conditioner has only been installed for more than a year, and it is under warranty. Uncle Li immediately contacted the air conditioner manufacturer. After the manufacturer came to investigate, it was found that the air conditioner was installed firmly and there was no installation problem. The reason why the outdoor air conditioner fell down was because the snow was too heavy that night, and the heavy snow crushed the outer frame of the air conditioner.

In this case, the air conditioner encountered irresistible forces, including typhoon, blizzard and other external factors beyond the support capacity, which led to the fracture. If an accident happens in this case, residents can be exempted from responsibility.

At the end of the conclusion, it is mentioned that whether the residents should be responsible for the air conditioner being blown off by the wind mainly depends on whether the air conditioner has been lost for a long time, whether the screws are loose and whether there are potential safety hazards. If there are the above security risks, residents should check and replace them in time, and the property management department should also check regularly to remind residents to do a good job of replacement. Excluding these factors that may be caused by human beings, residents can be exempted from responsibility for accidents caused by natural forces.
