please make a shorter version which instantly gets to the point
Hairy Ballbastic like damn I’m jus tryna stop this damn beeping
@@coreyshields4145 I know right shits bullshit I had no clue what to do I literally had to look up the entire sites catalogue of their products and it wasn't even in the discontinued section. it turned out there was a super small lock that was almost impossible to get out
literal dogshit desing
Hairy Ballbastic what do you mean a small lock? Im tired of this shit going off at 3am, im about to start breaking shit. I already changed all the batteries and they still go off wtf
lmfaoooooooo. Yesss
@@wavyheat305 im so sorry i couldnt reply to you earlier
I wish you guys would make a “straight to the point” video, 🤦🏻♀️
LOL..."alarmists" love the spot light!...kidding
You can always fast forward.
Skip the chit-chat!! Get right to the point.
I watched this in double speed and I still had time to cook lunch by the time you got to the point.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The part you are interested in starts from around 8:30 min
I love that when you come to this channel it’s not all about the hauls and the clean with me videos. Which I do love but seriously we learn something and as a new homeowner I appreciate you guys.
I can't stand the too much talking.
Thats the BLM for ya.

I’ts NOT CO2 as he mentioned. CO2 is carbon dioxide that we breath out. CO is carbon monoxide which is deadly!
3 beeps or 5 beeps mean that the unit has failed and needs to be replaced. A single chirp means the battery is low. 4 quick chirps mean that the alarm detected CO gas.
B T well 3 beeps from my neighbours smoke detector. Time to stay awake all night
I can't unplug this thing? How do you get the 3 pin plug out? She says she had a hard time getting it out, but WHAT is the tip to get it out??
There is a little lip latch that slips over that holds it in. I finally figured that out. That is why it is so hard to pull out.
People ALWAYS get those 2 terms screwed up!
I think we are so used to saying CO2 but never "CO" that, like him, we get through the "CO" and instinctively add the 2 :-D
i had to jump to the part where you're actually talking about how to solve the beeping smoke detector.
Ben Hatfield : help me here, at what time is that
Time stamp?
I literally walked in from work today and my battery is beeping. I have new construction that I moved into in December. Perfect timing Property Brother!
THANK YOU!!! Watching this at 1 in the morning...you can guess why...
I feel it im about to rip the damn thing form my ceiling idec if i die from a fire at this point i want sleep😂
Same
Same. It’s 4 am. I was able to endure this long but I can’t anymore.... 🤬🤬
Meanwhile me having to to online school and its 12am
Same😭😭😭
I love y'all so much! So much useful info Erik...us single gals appreciate your detailed instructions for when we gotta do it ourselves!
Oh my gosh....thank you for making this video. The beeping just woke me up in the middle of the night and I was like “are you kidding me”. I followed your steps and looks like my smoke detector needs to be replaced. Thank you for showing us how to take it down. You just saved me 4 hours of sleep!!! ☺️🙏🏾
OMG I AM UP AT 2:30am RIGHT NOW WATCHING THIS TO FIX TWO OF THESE DANG THINGS!!!😩 You understand me😂
Your hubby needs to keep coming back. Everything he brings to videos are so helpful. Thank you
Hi Tan and Erik! What a great video! Thank you for sharing such useful information! Erik, I hope you enjoy an amazing Father’s Day!
Thank you Erik. Tan you are truly blessed with a knowledgeable man.
Very good. I appreciate the thoroughness of your video. The side issues are important if replacement of the unit is necessary. Content insurance, the ability to reuse the current base, ladder safety, alternate carbon monoxide sensors, where to purchase (and best value), network behavior, and how to discharge the detector quickly are great topics on their own.
I was just experiencing this issue at home with the same First Alert model. I found your video on YT and it really helped me. God Bless you and your family!
Hey Tan and Erik! I’m loving these back to back uploads 💖
Sir, your video is great! Mine first alarm started the 3 chirp protocol on new year's eve! All stores were already closed, so next morning I bought the same generic as you did. I actually bought 4 more, just in case others would go off later.
So in summary:
1 chirp and the green light is blinking = replace battery
3 chirps = do the battery test and try replacing. If still chirps for 3 times, then replace the smoke detector
Great, useful and very important information. Good job Erik!
Thanks very useful information... I had to change mine because the beeping wouldn’t stop. Thanks again
Erik and Tan,
This video was so informative. I eventually took my two CO2/Fire Alarm ( same brand as yours) down b/c even after changing the batteries they were still beeping. Luckily, I have several “regular” alarms in the house. I went to a few Home Depot’s and could not find a replacement. Thank you so much for this advice. My house is exactly 7 years old so you are spot on about how long they last. Headed to Lowe’s now. Please start a Property Brother series. You guys make a great team. 👍🏽
Excellent information. I have those same linked smoke alarm. And you're right, it's tricky figuring out which one is beeping. I was involved in a house fire because my next door neighbor left her her house for over 12 hours with a candle burning. I discovered the fire at 3am. Please be careful when burning candles.
Thank you so much for this video. I was freaking out over the intermittent beeping! And you're right, It starts when you're sleeping.
God bless you both. My alarm was bleeping so loud it woke me out of my sleep. I put the battery in backward and it kept beeping 👀 I was getting ready to take a bat and beat it off of my wall 😂 🤦🏽♀️until I found your channel. You’re a blessing!! 😘
Thanks so much, it is 5:30 am and I'm on Christmas break from work and this alarm has drove us crazy for two days. You certainly educated me on smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors. Kudos to you!
Me too
Thank you very mutch. You come always with something useful and it is so wonderful. Please keep coming. Be blessed.💕
Thanks for this video. I replaced all of my smoke detectors today based on your video. These are the smoke detctors in my home. I couldn't get rid of the chirp and my friend said you dont hear that. I was so use to the sound and tuned it out...lol
Cheers for this boss. Usually I'd have my dad to go to for this, but he's sunning himself in Spain for life.
I know I say it EVERY time but dam I love you guys. Erik you showed me exactly what I need to do. Next time my smoke alarm needs changing I can do it myself 💃🏻. Thanks guys for ALWAYS making the time for us. Have a great weekend guys 🙂
Thanks for sharing!!! Excellent information.
Thank you soooo much for making this video. My FIRST ALERT SMOKE ALARM went off at 3am on a Wednesday morning...UGHHH... I couldn't for the life of me find which one. We had just moved into our new house. It was built in March 2017,we moved into the house on April 2018. So my husband and I are looking at each other thinking "WHY, JUST WHY is it going off. Well we FINALLY found the alarm it was upstairs in the Guest room.I took the old battery out , Thinking that would STOP the beep. IT ONLY GOT LOUDER. SO we didn't have ANY 9V batteries in the house. So, there I am making a Wally-World trip for 1item at 4am...lol
All I can say on this one is thank U thank U thank U👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you for this! Do I have to do anything at my circuit breaker before I unplug the alarm?
Very informative! Please keep these types of videos going. Love you guys!!
Thanks this was a very helpful lesson for everyone
TFS
Thanks for covering this!
Excellent information. Thank you for sharing with us.
WONDERFUL!!!!!!!! GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!!
Thank you for this video. Mine started chirping at 3am. I’ll try all of these steps tonight after work.
OMG mine did the same thing at the same time.
do I need to switch them all out of I replace one? LIke if I buy a different brand or whatever?
Much needed information thank you!!!
Thank you Erik and Tan!
The property brother is back!! Yaaayyyy!!😊😊🤗
Exactly what we needed to learn. Thank you very much! Excellent video.
Another great How-To and DIY video from The Property Brother.
Awesome video! Thank you!
Thanks for another great episode Property Brother !
Very informative video. I caught that Godfather quote by the Property Brother.
Had so much trouble replacing battery, your video helped!
Erik you’re not going anywhere we need a “Property Brother”😆 thanks for your time! #appreciation
Thanks, Tan for sharing your hubby with us!💯
I learned so much. Thank you a bunch!
Thank you! This video really helped me.
This was really helpful. Thank you
Eric you did an excellent job. Mine needs changing.
Thank you!!! I have unsubscribed from many youtubers who have constantly beeping detectors. It’s an annoyance and unsafe. Maybe this will help those who can’t figure out what to do.
Thanks so much for this!
You did an amazing video. I was unsure about why one would beep after a new battery. I could understand and follow you easily. Thank you. God bless. I can rest now.
GREAT VIDEO it’s awesome 👏🏽
What does it mean when I'm getting 3 chirps, from different detectors? like the hallway will go off, than the kitchen will go off than the bedroom will go off they alternate, I know they are connected, I purchased 7 new detectors, checked all the batteries with my volt meter, yet when I plug them in it starts up with what I said earlier, I'm so confused, the system was fine from 2006 till now having replaced them in 2022, ?? any help will be appreciated.
Thanks guys for doing this very informative video!
Thank you! We love fried food, it is really messy. I bought a deep fryer and only fry on the patio! I no longer have to worry about my teens setting the house on fire!
Thanks for sharing. I have a smoke/CO2 detector that speaks. “She” has shouted, “Fire, Fire, Fire” in the middle of the night for no apparent reason! Tell me why?!
The design flaws insure high sales. You'll think you bought a lemon and buy another. The legal changes requiring a 1-BR flat have 3 of these torture devices is aimed at public housing and Sec. 8 (where the elderly & disabled live). If they can use these devices to induce fatal heart attack, the fed. can raid one's S.S. acct. & cut the state in on a small percentage, the landlord raises rents -- and it's all done under the auspices & plausible deniability of "helping & protecting" you! With friends like these, who needs enemies?
This law must be overthrown (at least for apt. dwellers, since the law was designed with split level home owners in mind), since it violates and utterly destroys the renter's rights to quiet habitation and endangers the health of the elderly, and wakes any sleeping babies. It ought not be allowed to be installed near humans until it can pass strict tests of proximity near baking ovens for eight hours at a stretch, and the high indoor humidity caused by slow cooking teas and soups in big pots on the stovetop for three days. If it can do that without giving false alarms, then it's fit for use in human dwellings.
holy shit. that's scary!
@@CameoWalkin ok I know this is terrible but I'm a broke joke right now so I'm in section 8 because I have 3 kids and no education except high school diploma so fast food and store work ain't cutting it, but what's this about causing heart attacks. I have 3 babies and because we have a 3 bdrm I have one in every single room. It's overkill! The alarm goes off for a simple burnt pizza or anything and lasts sometimes for hours and I have to keep pushing the button and it still didn't stop. Plus I've took batteries out and cut the breaker and mine still keep going. Almost like they're wired into the building and they would have to cut the power from a main breaker somewhere! What can I do? Also I'm really concerned about the heart attack thing for my little one's sake. Also another kid died here last year from Sid's and the apartment had a carbon monoxide leak but they somehow said it wasn't the apartments fault! What do you think???? Edit: when he tells about having a fire extinguisher.....please tell me why there is not one single fire extinguisher in this whole joint!? But damn if that alarm don't scream fire! fire! fire! What am I gonna do with no extinguisher? Almost like they want it to burn down!!???
Thanks. Your video was the only one that mentioned that the battery would NOT fit if it was not matched up positive and negative properly.
I could not figure out why it was not fitting.
Yea! We found it out!! Only by watching this video we were able to solve the problem!!! Thank you so much!!👌👍🏼
Great job on this topic! Very through.
Thank you so much! Your fire alarm video solved my 2 day problem
Thank you so much!!! I have two going off. 1st downstairs started, than upstairs bedroom. One peeps then the other about 2-5min. later the other one would. Couldn't sleep hearing them😫😔. I would like to know if it's okay to vacuum out the base (hole inside the base) that's screwed into the wall??? Have anyone tried doing that and should I turn the electricity off BEFORE doing it???
Thanks for doing this video. It really helped me. My fire alarms need new batteries.
This is a great video. Thank you so much. I love the details & extra info you provided.
And your home is beautiful.
Thank you for this video. It just saved me from my scary 5 am faulty fire alarm!
Hi just saw ur video bout smoke alarms trying to learn from it, i am ignorant about these things, i noticed u didnt shut the curcuit breaker, do i have to if i want to replace the whole thing? I hear long beeps not chirp in my daughhter’s room and im scared about completely removing the unit coz im worried that the rest of my system( about 8 of them will beep continuesly). They are hardwired also like urs. Thanks of a great video!!! God Bless
Very helpful and informative! Keep up the great videos.
Great video!!!..Property Brother can you do a video regarding tool storage and garage organization?
Thanks Eric for a very informative video. By the way how tall are you? You make Tan look short, lol.
Great help to me. Thank you
You covered everything I needed to know, great video, but like other comments, maybe edit out the chatting. When someone is looking for a video like this they are probably having problems, they aren’t interested in “chit chat”, they are borderline desperate to stop the beeping! But love your style, very good teaching and nice clear pics of what I needed to see.
THANK YOUUUUUUU! YOU HAVE NO IDEA. 1AM AND I CAN FINALLY GET SOME SLEEP!!!
Thank you. This video was very informative. Stopping the beeping it's not a permanent solution one needs to understand why is it beeping and what's the best solution. Thanks again
On a side note I must say the finish wood work in your house is gorgeous.
Thanks!! You guys are the best!
Lol 😂 I’m standing in my flip flops right now watching this video standing on a step ladder 😅
Very helpful and will use the information
Thank you for making this video
Thank you! Now I know for sure that I need a new smoke detector.
Very helpful thanks. The alarm in my kids room was going off and the only one going off. Got me paranoid. But my comfort was that none of the other ones were going off....and of course your video. Thanks
Great video. My smoke detector is hardwired with no battery back up. I see the next steps are to clean them out or possible replace them. Thank you.
Don’t you have to shut off the electric at the breaker box before you disconnect the connecting wires that you said was a little tough to take apart?
Definitely worked thank you! BTW our fire dept had no idea what to do. I watched your video while they were here and ended up figuring it out before they did. My gosh. Thank u so much will be subscribing & thumbs up!
OMG....I am so GLAD I found your video..I AM one of THOSE UA-camrs whose smoke detectors is Chirping while I am videoing. I've watch SEVERAL videos to try and address this annoying issue, EVEN a Fire Marshall's video, but NO RESOLVE. I will do as you've shared in this video. QUESTION: Did you change just the one smoke detector shown in this video, or did you have to change them ALL????
Do you have to unplug it from the ceiling before you put the new battery in
Thanks 😀😀
Just saw your video today. It is October 05, 2022. You left out a very major important factor. Do you need to turn off the electrical power to the smoke detector?
7:32 I can't take this latch off!! 😩 i bought a new one and im suffering from the chirp all bc i cant take that part off. No videos on how to take it off 😕
Perfect timing. Mine just started beeping.
Thank you so much
Thank You!
Mine just went off yesterday so this video was right on time and the fire department was sent to my house because I had a contractor's doing work ...I have 8 in my house and they detect the carbon dioxide as well . Great video and thanks for sharing.
Your alarm detects carbon MONOXIDE not DIOXIDE! Carbon Dioxide (CO2 is what we breath out and is safe. Carbon Monoxide (CO) is the deadly odorless gas that will kill if you breath enough of it without breathing oxygen. That’s why you need to get to fresh air ASAP when Carbon Monoxide is released into the house by a faulty furnace for example.
Tell me what the difference is between the chirping of a First Alert which means it needs a new battery and a loud alarm BEEP BEEP BEEP that goes off two times in a row at 3a.m., and than does it again in 5 hours and then doesn’t do it again (so far) for three days? Could it mean the smoke alarm unit(s)are old and need to be replaced? I have 6 hardwired ones upstairs and it was the one in my bedroom that went off.
Great video. Im now an subscriber
