Default Smoke Alarms beeping. Any ideas ???



I opened mine up in my place, the same ones are outside. And yes they
do have a battery in them. I suppose they need some new ones.

Ill ring some people up tommorrow and get ALL teh batteries replace.
Shouldhave some peaace for atleast 15 months i hope

I hope thats the problem. Easy enough to fix.

Thanks all.

Don't think it can be the easy one. low batteries as they are hard
wired in to the power. They are located in our Stairwell in our
building. One is right at my door and has a high pitched SCREECH

They seem to be going off at the same time one after another. Not all
of them just some of them.

I was thinking maybe they were left in a TESt mode or something. As
iam pretty sure Smoke alarms don't make noise till they need to



Any ideas.

Going to call our buildings Strata, people who look after the building
to get it fixed anyways. Just like to know your thought son the matter


Thanks.



Hard wired alarms are usually connected together, so if one goes off,
they all go off. Typical of a multi unit residence.
Also, many have a battery back up.
You should have long since called the property owners.
