So glad I found & watched this video, my smoke alarms just lost their brains & are going off in the wee hours of the morning😴😖. This video will come in handy replacing these bad units.
Thanks for the helpful video! My house's First Alert 7010B and SC7010BV's were installed when the house was built in 2011, so we just bought a whole bunch of new 7010B and SC7010BV models and are just waiting for the 5 chirps to replace them!
I’m moving to a new house that has old smoke alarms and spots with no smoke alarms at all, it will be fun to install, my grandpa also recently bought a new house and I get to replace the smoke alarms there as they are more than 10 years old
all mine going crazy and I have outdoor alarm and strobe. Caused an absolute scene, all my alarms from 2007. I do not understand why you just cant press OFF somewhere
What model is this? Because I have some Alarms and they’re hardwired but I just use the battery. Do you know if they do make a battery version of this? Because I would love one of that model.
I had a kidde dual technology smoke detector and it was nothing but trouble. It would go off randomly even when there was literally nothing wrong. It was like it was complaining about simply existing. My advice isn't to avoid double detection, but to buy both types separately.
@@dave23024The dual detection are actually way to easy to set off, because there is no way to avoid setting it off, so there is basically nowhere in the house where that works. Replace immediately if you have them
If you have some smart speakers like alexa, it will notify the fire department and you can be getting a call from a family member or neighbor while you're at dinner with your family that your house is on fire to find out the alarm is just going off randomly.
All my KIDDE, smoke alarms in the middle of the night power outage occurred, and then tried replacing the battery, and then tried resetting it testing it, and tried cleaning it. But it kept on going off and this video really helped and replaced it with simplisafe
Great video, how do i know which alarm to replace ? I’ve got 3. Do i need to change them all, i think they came with the house. More than 10 yrs. old. Thanks
You always remove the wire from the power connection first ! Did you confirm that the new detector is compatible with the other detectors in the system ?
Look seems I’m gonna ask the same question I’ve seen a few times but see no reply to there’s . I am renting I recently changed out all the batteries and now they randomly keep going , matter of fact it was 5 am that it just went off and some how I am here . The question I suppose I am asking is am I to replace all of them?
Do you know why it would go off even after replacing the whole system and using new batteries. It originally chirped even after battery change. When it continued, I changed the whole system. Now it is going off (blaring like there is a fire) at random like once or twice a week.
My house has same type of smoke alarms. It might be time to replace them. Can a pull station be wired into this type of system to cause the smoke alarms to sound?
You can if you use a relay module like the Kidde SM120X. Here's the datasheet for it, I believe figure 2 is what would accomplish what you're asking: www.shareddocs.com/hvac/docs/2001/Public/0A/SM120X_UserGuide_EN.pdf
Hey, s.e.r I was just wondering which one do you prefer kiddie or first alert? I don’t know what one to install in my house I know everything about ionization and photoelectric. But my parents don’t and they refused to listen to the information please can you tell me which company is better so that way I can at least steer them in the right direction. Also which one do you think is better as a standalone unit ionization or photoelectric? Sincerely, Willliam Ps I am very Young so my parents don’t exactly listen to me.
The brand doesn't really matter too much, they both have to meet the same standards. Whatever smoke alarm you get, just make sure it's a reputable brand. Don't get some generic smoke alarm you find on eBay just because it's cheap, they likely do not meet the standards that the "big name" smoke alarms do. In terms of whether ionization or photoelectric is better, it really is best to have at least one of each type in your home. If you can only go with one, I'd install photoelectric alarms since they are much better at reducing false alarms and have a significant advantage over ionization alarms when it comes to smoldering fires.
If I turn the breaker off my alarm sounds I once also had some temporary traffic lights outside the house and the whole time they were there every time the lights changed it set me alarm off where the 2 in house send signals to each other and the damnd things were picking up the signal the light were useing apart from sneaking out and disconnecting the temporary lights on the street I was unable to find a propper fix. The alarms have started to sound again and this time theres no roadworks out front what could it be this time
For the expiration, we keep being told that it would just keep chirping and not sound like an actual fire report. (in the manual, when 10 years is up for the "usual-consumer-grade-smoke-alarms") BTW, I experienced a problem with a couple, including even a more recent First Alert one that didn't even sound likely to be "expired", randomly giving alarm indicating smoke and then it stopped by itself. I actually wonder if this can indicate a wiring problem. The first incident, in 2016, was with with a later-looking Kidde in a house that was known to have a bad neutral. It wasn't expired, TMK. The second incident, was with the First Alert/BRK with voice and lower tone model, downstairs on the northeast-side and it hasn't done that for months now, IIRC.
A not especially helpful video with a misleading title. I've had several smoke alarms over the years that will give random false alarms, and none of them were more than 4 or 5 years old at the time. Simply replacing the device with a new one may solve the problem, but it is not the same thing as "fixing" the alarm.
I mean it’s an effective way to get you to change it but also an effective way to almost give people a heart attack thinking their house is burning down in the middle of the night!
I’ve bought 2 smoke alarms that say they are supposed to last 10 years. After a few months they start to go of randomly. They don’t have replaceable batteries. I couldn’t change the alarm because I had just had spinal surgery. So it just kept waking me up all night long. 😭
we got a first alert smoke alarm in 2020. the one in my room kept having problems. we changed the batteries and it worked! until 7:am i kept hearning beeping. then we replaced it.
Mine started going off by just boiling a pot of pasta, then 6 times randomly last night, it’s a monoxide and smoke alarm by Kidde, I changed the backup battery and it continues, my dad didn’t know what to do either so I called the fire department just in case it was monoxide, I feel bad that I called them at 4am, they tested for gas but they said it looked fine and that the smoke alarm is just old, it’s a 2016 and now it’s 2023 , im so pissed! i kept waking up scared to death running to the smoke alarm to hush it only for it to go off again 😒 wish i had seen the comments about the duel detecters sooner, and if i knew i could have just ripped it off the wall
I got a new smoke detector I got a 2019 it keeps going off every 5 minutes every time I go lay down it goes off and then it's just got a battery not very long ago my daughter put it in but it keeps on going off I mean I lay down could there be something like a wire burning in the outlet can you tell me that
This happened in Cedar Lake. While I was sleeping, it was 2:56 am in the morning when suddenly, all smoke alarms go off multiple times until the stopped going off at 4 am.
Just to say, some houses will have yellow wires for interconnect instead of red. It is the same thing. Always match the black and white wires, and the remaining wire is the interconnect.
I just replaced the whole alarm, because the last one had a malfunction. The new one keeps going off. I have white, black, & orange wire. The orange wire doesn’t connect too anything.
I thought this video would help because our First Alert smoke and co detector went off the morning for no reason but the manufacturer date said 4-15-2016
Kiddie SMOKE ALARM 🚨 Tried replacing the battery And Tried resetting it. But did not try testing it or cleaning it but I’ll go ahead and try it…! Thx For your help! oh and by the way SER Safety The model number is KN-COPE-I12060 I don’t think make those smoke alarms anymore… which is so non-satisfying😢😢!!
Sometimes I think the house is trying to tell me something. The spirit of the house or some thing here’s trying to protect the house. I know it is actually I just realized a few times I left the candle on and got up in the middle of the night at about three in the morning and went straight down to the mantle where the candle holder is and there it is still lit even though we thought we double checked all the candles that’s happened twice. The question is why did I get up and go straight to the candle 🕯
We moved into a new built house it has ent even been a year and about once every week they are going off and saying fire wen there is no fire we have cleaned them replaced the battery but nothing helps
I would attempt to assume that they would go off for as long as possible until someone clicked hush. I assume that because that happened to me but not with Covid. New fear unlocked!
HELP!!! I literally have no more smoke detectors in this house and the beeps are still coming out of the bracketed outlets with the wires hanging out. Can someone help? I am literally going crazy now. Can't find a video that deals with this.
After reading one of the comments a lightbulb went off. There was a carbon monoxide plug-in down under a windowsill that I found. I unplugged it and took the battery out and it stopped! For those of us who don't have good directional hearing, it can drive you absolutely insane. I had forgotten that thing was even there. Been there since we discovered a gas leak about a year ago.
I worked with live wires before you just gotta be careful with it if you can’t access the panel like my old job because we had fans and pumps to keep the bubbles up over the tennis courts and heat
Our fire alarm kept on going off every 5-10 minutes and didn’t have the breakers and so he just grabbed a screw drive and jammed it into the little connection thing on the back and that seem to work
Why do these shts go off in the middle of the night in the a.m tho ?? Why not the middle of the afternoon where it might not be scaring the sh out of you. Woke me up, my kids, my apartment neighbors, & had them ringing my doorbell to make sure everything was ok. I had to go outside with a flashlight to the breaker box on the side of the house with zero labels. I just flipped them all. It stopped the alarms going off but they went off again about a hour later but only once and not continuously. I’m too pissed 😤
Alarm in new mobile home keeps randomly going off in only one room every few weeks. I've put in a new battery, cleaned it, unplugged it, reset it... I have done this 3 times in the last 5 weeks or so and it keeps happening. At this point I can only guess that this one smoke alarm is faulty and needs to be replaced. Oh the other thing is it will beep every minute for like 15-30 minutes after I've gone through all these steps and then stop beeping... but who knows when it will wake me up again!!!!!!!
Yes. If you take just the battery out it won’t work. If you want to go that route, take the battery out AND go to the breaker box and shut off the power. They’ll finally shut up.
This happened multiple times yesterday in my new house so I unplugged the culprit. The alarm sounding was 10 years old and the other 4 are almost 20 years old so I think I just need to buy 5 new detectors
This happened to me 2 times to the 1st time in the evening we had to call the fire department the second time it we were all sleeping and then at 1am all our alarms went off And I said "shut up smoke alarms!!!!!!" And everyone else was awoken from there sleep (ps the alarms sounded like a mix of est Genisis and spectralert advance)
mine is doing this, it is 9volt battery only though, its 4 years old, it does 3 beeps and then shuts up, i happened about 2 days ago, and it did it again

The most annoying part is when it wakes up not only you, but you neighbors and your neighbors’ neighbors . So embarrassing 🙈

If you have some smart speakers like alexa, it will notify the fire department and you can be getting a call from a family member or neighbor while you're at dinner with your family that your house is on fire to find out the alarm is just going off randomly.
I like that you turned off a 240 volt breaker for your example as opposed to the actual breaker that the smoke detector is on.
Nah his house is just different his smoke alarms need 40 amps and 240v

This doesn’t work for a typical home smoke detector. You’ll need a whole fire alarm system, with a pull station and actual alarms
I just replaced all mine and it's still doing it
Same, have you figured anything out?
Mine too😢 and my husband thinks is only because is old or need reseat but I don't think so 😟

Make sure you are using the suggested batteries on your smoke alarm. The wrong or cheap batteries can cause it to spark and cause a fire
You should know that white and black wires power the smoke alarm and red just activates the other smoke alarms

Have fire alarms randomly going of through the house at night usually. So I think there about 8 years old. I think it time to replace them.
You should do a series where you put a smoke alarm up, test it with smoke, then in number 2 there a different one
I just put a brand new one in and it just goes off constantly. I turned all breakers off and it still goes off

No
Yes you dingbat
My smoke alarms are hardwired, but the wire thhat interconnects them was never installed when he house was built
