    The irritating chirping and the voice saying "low battery" will generally start in the middle of the night.
    Most often it goes into "low battery warning mode" if you have a big day coming in the a.m., such as if you need to be ultra alert to drive long distance. This incessant reminder happens every 60 seconds, so no catnaps between warnings allowed!
    Another time the detector will give you trouble is if a fussy infant has just fallen asleep--again, in the middle of the night, after you have spent a couple of hours trying to get the little one to nod off.
    You can count on these units to quietly do their job when nobody is home to be irritated.

    Good video I just wished u couldve shown how to take the housing off and put back on. But I had a question, ..is a hard wired unit communicating to emergency facilities or landlords at any point??

    • @OurHaydenHome
      @OurHaydenHome  Рік тому +1

      Thanks so much for your inquiry. The housing should twist off by firmly gripping the alarm and twisting to the left. While the units are hardwired throughout the home, they are not set up to send alerts to emergency facilities or landlords.

    I tried to remove mine from the ceiling I can't, it's hard. It won't come out. What to do? I twist it counter clockwise but it won't twist. So frustrated.

    I have that detector ... HATE IT. July 4th at 5am it gives me a false alarm (loud enough to wake the dead including my apt. neighbors) and it was bloody hell to get it to stop. Seems high humidity outdoor air (blowing through with a window fan) is enough to set off this damned thing. Replaced batteries per video and it still chirps every minute. Bedroom detectors using 9V batteries never have a problem.

    • @oliviagreen8853
      @oliviagreen8853 2 роки тому +2

      Ok so I just went ahead and did it, you don’t need to turn the power off, just swap the batteries then press the button, it will chirp once and it will alternate between green and red lights, this is its self test so press the button once more and it will be reset and synced with the house. Depending on the exact model you have you may only need to press the button once and not twice like me

    THE MOST IMPORTANT PART IS INSERTING THE BATTERIES TO TURN OFF THIS GOD FORSAKEN CHIRP. WHY WOULD YOU RUSH THROUGH THE MOST IMPORTANT PART???

    Terrible. How do the batteries go?. It doesn't say which way they go. I replaced them last week. It was quiet but it's chirping again. Put new batteries in still doing it

      @SparkingLife111 10 місяців тому

      From another video i saw we gotta slide the battery in but slide it over the plastic thing stick up so essential push it down at same time seems cant push it down by itself once the battery is in already.
