Thanks for your video.We focus on Smart Sensor Alarms( smoke alarms, carbon monoxide alarms, Door Sensor,motion sensor，etc), hoping to provide safety protection for more people,A small item may be able to help many families stay away from disasters.
HERES THE SOLUTION: THIS THING WAS PISSING ME OFF ALL MORNING. FIRST TURN OF THE SMOKE ALARM FROM MAINS. NEXT TAKE OF THE COVER BY USING A FLAT HEAD SCREW DRIVER TO WEDGE IT OPEN. FINALY REMOVE THE BATTERY FROM THE COVER AND CHUCK THE WHOLE THING IN THE BIN.
I have a problem with our PSA Homeguard 2000. Constant beeping. Have replaced the battery twice, with 2 different new batteries. No hush button so that's not the problem. Have now removed the unit from the ceiling fitting and removed the battery from the unit. The ceiling fitting is still beeping. It happens only of a night time when the temperature has dropped. The unit is only 2 years old and is the second alarm that we had this problem with. The other was replaced about 12 months ago.
Eventually found the noisy smoke alarm. It was in a room that we do not use and was echoing into the hallway area. Had great support from Cameron at PSA within 2-3 hours of contacting them on their website; via phone and email.
mine went off saying carbon monoxide in the middle of the night but nothing happened after? im really confused about this, and i feel like im going to die
Mine just went off and I'm actually surprised that my dog didn't jump or flinch. This type of model has a button to push and hold for a few seconds. There was no smoke or fire.
Check your carbon monoxide detector. Mine is on a wall near the floor, but almost under the smoke detector. It's very difficult to tell which is chirping, so try the battery in both.
Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for this post! Same thing happened to us and we were going crazy trying to figure out which alarm was beeping. Finally realized it was the carbon monoxide detector. Thank you, Jesus!
Just repetition on thousands of alarms haha. After a few attempts you'll get a feel for it! It also helps align the lines on the smoke alarm to the base.
My smoke alarm which is still new doesn't have a battery. All 4 smoke alarms are hardwired. I have used the hush button, disconnected the alarm and reinstalled it and it continues chirping every 5 minutes. Kiddie support is useless as you have to wait several hours. Can you suggest what to do. I am not sure if I shut off the central electricity that will work either. thanks Paul
Hardwired smoke alarms still have a replaceable back up battery. This is incase a fire interrupts your electricity supply. It is the back up battery which is causing your bleeping alarm. There will be a slot on the side of the alarm you can open in order to replace. Make sure your electricity is isolated first
Hi John, Most smoke alarms are hardwired now. All smoke alarms installed in new properties since 1997 should be hardwired in Australia. They need a backup battery because when there is a fire, there is a high risk the power will go out, either due to the fire itself or a short which caused the fire in the first place. If the smoke alarm is mains powered only and the power goes out during the fire, it won't sound.
Can anyone tell me if a chirping smoke detector will still work, if it is the low battery? I am heading out to get a new battery tomorrow but now it’s evening, so I’m gonna deal with the chirping until tomorrow. Working detectors are always a security blanket for us, I would hate to not have one at all. (We live in an apartment) if there happens to be smoke, would the detector still work normally (beeping) even though right now it is chirping intermittently? Hope someone can answer!
Nearly fell off ladder & broke my neck at 2am trying to slide this damn thing open. Apparently if it's got a tamper screw putting all your weight into pushing will make you & the ladder move but not the alarm! Screw out & it slid straight off. If only I could figure out how to reach the one above the stairs before the beeping drives me to insanity!!!!
I took battery out and it still chirps...any advice?..think it’s alive and doing that to annoy me..keep on..I’m throwing it in the garbage..I’ll hear when the neighbors get to yelling
1:28 4/17/23. I have a old alarm with no battery back up. I turned off the power and disconnected the alarm and the connector. I still get the chirping sound with it outside the house?
Hi Bill, there is no smoke alarm that doesn't have some kind of battery backup. The alarm you have likely has a built-in non-replaceable 10-year lithium battery, you will most likely need to replace the alarm.
Holy shit balls I just woke up at 4:30 in the morning to the loudest beeping I’ve ever heard. I’m pretty sure it must have been the alarm. But christ it scared the hell out of me Edit: literally as I posted this comment and was about to go to sleep it went off again. God damn it.
Mine is 4 years old and seems to be a malfunction as I have put in new batteries and still chirps every 30 seconds. I am going to try to return mine as its say 10 years these should last. Its not the cheap one but the $45.00 one.
Find out more at: www.SmokeAlarmWarning.org Australian legislation (Queensland and the Northern Territory) and legislation in Zealand and some U.S. States mandates the use of photoelectric smoke alarms. Many authorities advise photoelectric alarms as being "better" but for legal and political reasons are not allowed to warn that there is anything wrong with ionization alarms.

can anyone tell me why so many people have their smoke detector do this? whats the piont? isnt it caused by just weak batteries or something? are people that lazy?

That happened to me one time and I had to sleep so I took it out and put it in my car LOL
😂
Me too 😡😵😭 F**k with this alarm!
I have work at 10:30am and this thing is alarming from literally nothing.
Thank God for all the wonderful People that put out " How To " Videos. I Love you all !!!

Watching this video at 7am after the chirping alarm woke me up at 6am 😩.
I should of watched this 9 months ago. Beeping all this time and all it was a damn battery smh.
😂
What if you already changed the battery but the chirping continues 2x every 30 seconds seconds?
shaneaery that means that’s the end of the alarms life, and you have to buy a new one
For my alarm Ei141RC after changing battery you need to test the alarm. After that, press the hush button. That seems to stop the continuous chirping.
God damn dude it’s 3am lol finally I can fix the beeping 🤦🏻♂️

hush button stays green but my test button does not light red anymore is this normal ?
Really useful video. Managed to change the batteries on top of a ladder (very high ceilings). Thanks!
it was the carbon monoxide detector next to the alarm.. thank goodness I found out..they are so close to each other
Thanks! I had the issue today and had forgotten about the carbon monoxide detector which is where the battery was needed.
I just ripped the dam thing down. No more, in the shed you go.
what if you try everything but it still chirps
kai lazaro shoot it! 😂
REPLACE IT!

30 seconds???? U think I’m lying but it’s been going on every 3 seconds for 2 weeks. And i used to also have it like a lot of time in the pasts
But why wires still beep

Mine hasn’t stop since last night
Mine wakes me up at freaking 3am and it beeps and says replace battery!
Then replace the battery? Simple
I just replaced the batteries and it's still chirping mine dosen't even have a hush button
maybe take it back to the place you bought it from- might be faulty
Just destroy the smoke detector
