Carbon monoxide alarm going off?

carbon monoxide detector 4 beeps image

Marissa

Every fire alarm has a carbon monoxide detector in our house, we also have 2 wall ones...the one in our basement (Fire alarm) is beeping 3-4 beebs every like 5 seconds, we put the 2 wall plug in ones down there and it doesn't detect anything..none of the other fire alarms down their are going off and neither are any others in the house..

What should we do? (My moms at work, i'm 16 and have no idea...I called my mom and she told me to try replacing the battery so i'm about to go buy one but still...any ideas?
If you look at it its the red light going off with CO and "move to fresh air" written next to it. My neighbor who is pretty good at this stuff is on his way over to help us out. Thanks!

Answer
I answered your question about the braces. Im 16 too! :D

And well, yeah wait till your neighbor comes over to help. I dont think there is any Carbon Monoxide in your house. It sounds like either the batteries are dead or it is a product malfunction. Sit tight and wait until your neighbor comes. He should be able to help out! If it keeps happening, replace the alarm completely. If it still goes off, there must be some carbon monoxide setting it off! But I doubt there is anything to worry about!

My carbon monoxide alarm beeped?

Brendon

Pleasee heeelp!!!!
My monoxide barbon detector beeped... It started beeping the night before last night, 1. Beep ever minute i guess, then i pressed the reset button and it stopped. Last night, same thing . And today, it beeped 4 beeps every 5 seconds(it says on the back thats the carbon alarm!! I changed the batteries, now it seems to be ok... Whay should i do ??
The dector is new!! I have it for like, 2 years, or something ....
But later it was beeping 4 beeps every 5seconds, the thing says when this happens, its because it feels the carbon monoxide =/

Answer
change the battery's, get a new one could be a defect, if still keeps beeping call 911 or your local gas company
