My carbon monoxide detector beeps every 30 seconds?

carbon monoxide detectors beeping every 30 seconds image

some girl

It's so disturbing, i can't sleep with that thing beeping every 30 seconds, its quite loud too.
What's wrong with it? My mom just got a new battery for it and i don't think our house is poisoned or whatever the detector is for..
So what's wrong with it and what can we do? thanks all ._.
oh and this started recently (i think on monday Nov 1st)
it'll start beeping every 30 seconds at around 4pm
then around 6pm it starts again, i dont really keep track, but i believe it goes in a 2 hour cycle.
it usually lasts for around 30 mins

Answer
Could be that your mom didn't install the new battery correctly. (Mine was a real pain.)

My Carbon Monoxide alarm keeps beeping every 30 seconds?

Eriko <3

Does this mean that its detecting something or its the battery? Im worried.
i only had 2 new batteries so i took the other 2 straight out, put them in and it beeped for a good 1or 2 seconds after and that was it. idk if i was supposed to press anything or "reset" it but the beeping stopped. idk.

Answer
Every 30 seconds chirp is low battery on most detectors.
