Federal law states that smoke detectors must be placed outside the sleeping areas on every level. However, (not sure if this is state, local, or federal) the tenant must maintain the detectors(i.e.-batteries)

where i live hardwired smoke detectors are the law in all homes, rented or not.
if i was the landlord i would be putting them in for my own piece of mind and insurance reasons not just because the tenant wants them. its not worth even disputing they should just put them in!

In many states, it's the law. So if you have none, I suggest you tell them it will be necessary that there are at least two installed before you move in.

Yes. Here in Australia it's compulsory anyway.

I believe it is required in Missouri. Check with your state attorney general. You can find them, usually, by searching for your state government.

I'm pretty sure because if they don't provide they might have trouble with insurance of the house and firestations.
