Maximizing Your Family’s Protection

The best thing you can do to protect your family in the event of a fire is to make sure you have smoke detectors installed in the right places and check them regularly. Smoke detectors should be located on each level of the home, in every bedroom, and within 15 feet of each bedroom door.

To ensure maximum protection, make sure that you:

  • Place smoke detectors in optimal locations
  • Replace batteries annually, including backup batteries
  • Replace smoke detectors every 8-10 years
  • Check your smoke detectors twice a year

Press the “test” button on your smoke detector. You should hear a high-pitched sound. If you have changed the battery and don’t hear the sound, the smoke detector may be defective or there may be a problem with the connection. Our technicians can find the problem and recommend the best solution.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q1. How often should I replace the batteries in my smoke detector?

  • If you have a 10-year sealed unit, never; If it's a traditional unit, once a year which is included in our Experts Advantage Plan (Batteries not Included).

Q2. Why does my smoke detector beep intermittently?

  • Intermittent beeping can indicate a low battery. Replace the batteries with fresh ones to resolve the issue. If the beeping persists, it could be a sign of a malfunctioning detector that requires further troubleshooting or replacement.

Q3: How long does it take a detector to stop beeping?

  • Once you replace the battery or otherwise successfully address the reason for the chirping, the smoke detector should stop making noise in a few moments. However, if you cannot figure out the problem, don’t disable the unit by taking out the battery. Obtain a new smoke detector as soon as possible to keep your household safe.

Q3. How long do smoke detectors last?

  • Smoke detectors typically last for about 8-10 years. However, it is recommended to refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific lifespan of your detector. After the recommended lifespan, replace the unit to ensure optimal performance.

Q4. Can cooking trigger a false alarm on a smoke detector?

  • Yes, cooking activities can sometimes trigger a smoke detector due to smoke or steam. To prevent false alarms while cooking, it's advisable to use exhaust fans, open windows, or relocate the smoke detector away from the kitchen area.

Q5. Why does my smoke detector go off when there is no smoke?

  • Smoke detectors can be sensitive to other airborne particles such as dust, steam, or strong odors. Ensure that the detector is clean and free from any obstructions. If the problem persists, it might be due to a malfunctioning unit that requires replacement.

Q6: My alarm went off in the middle of the night.

  • The alarms are designed to be sensitive to protect your family. Heating/Cooling systems may cause temperature changes and air movement.

Q: Can you make them less sensitive?

  • Unfortunately, no, they are designed to detect a particular level of smoke, and making them less sensitive would affect the operation.

Remember, smoke detectors are vital for your safety, so it's crucial to address any issues promptly. If troubleshooting steps don't resolve the problem, contact the manufacturer or a professional for further assistance.
