They went of randomly a couple of weeks ago and I figured we should change the batteries since we haven’t changed them since we moved in this house-a year ago-and so we changed them. This morning they randomly went off for no reason! I just can’t figure out why! Please any suggestions?
I live in my own home. I have 7 smoke alarms; 5 upstairs and 2 downstairs. Yesterday, they all went off at the same time … no smoke; no fire. I shut them off at the breaker box. The smoke alarms are wired into the house, but each has one 9 volt battery in it. I replaced all the batteries, but that did not solve the problem. Any suggestions?
I have tried pushing the test button on each and that did not work.
All were unplugged when installing the new batteries.
i was just wondering cuz i need double a batteries and my smoke alarm has some and i dont think theres going to be a fire in the next 5 mins but if it goes off my dad will get mad at me…
The started by just beeping every couple of minutes. Then, one will beep 3 times, and the rest will each beep 3 time in "response". When I say beep, I mean like sirens are going off. Then they move on to chirping during which you wish you didn’t have ear drums.. I’ve replaced all of the batteries (twice) and it is still doing it. I have tried resetting each of them and that doesn’t work. I’m ready to rip them out of the ceilings. How can I get them to stop?
I removed the cover to replace batteries. Now when I put the cover back after replacing batteries, the alarm starts beeping continously. How do I stop it from beeping? It stops beeping when I take off the cover. How do I put the cover back? Thanks!
I was exercising using a cardio DVD. The last two times I used it the smoke alarm went off. After the first time we changed the batteries, today it happened a second time. There clearly isn’t smoke, the walls by the detector are very cold. Is it a faulty detector, or should I just work out somewhere else.
About once ever few days, every one of our smoke alarms goes off. Its not just chirping like when the batteries are no good, its full on beeping. There is absolutely no smoke, and we changed all the batteries. What causes this?
I desperately need security cameras because I don’t feel save at my neighborhood but
there is this bunch of kids of questionable characters hanging next door and
how do I know that they won’t use some stick or rocks to knock down my outdoor security camera?
What about wireless camera? How do I replace batteries? Should I use landwire instead?
my son changed batteries for his remote keyless entry and now we cannot get the car to unlock for his ‘03 tiburon. is there a reset or something?
The home is new construction built in 2006. The smoke alarms are electric with a battery backup. I expect the bulbs caused some sort of power changes that caused the alarms to beep. The things didn't beep before the bulbs, continued to beep after I replaced all the batteries in the alarms, continued after I reset the alarms, and stopped beeping after I replaced the compact florescents with incandescent bulbs. Very odd.
I have five smoke alarms in my house connected to my power and they also each have 8 volt battery backup. Randomly all my smoke alarms will go off for about 5 seconds. Sometimes it happens several times a day and some times it will take a couple of weeks before it does it again.
I did clean as much dust as I could from the housing and I change the batteries about once a year. The smoke alarms do go off when we accidently burn something in the oven, which means they work.
Any Ideas on why they go off when there is no smoke? It is getting quite annoying, especially when they go off like 5 times a day.
Thanks in advance.
