My Kidde hardwired smoke detector keeps beeping, what should I do?

carbon monoxide detectors chirping image

Q. My Kidde hardwired smoke and carbon monoxide detector just recently has started chirping/beeping every minute or so. I have done extensive research, and I'm not getting any answers that are applicable.

I replaced the battery several times, and the beeping continued. The detector was installed last year, so is not too old, and I even flicked the breaker switch on and off... Nothing works.

Please help me out here.

Answer
These units are problematic. You probably should just replace it. At least you will have some peace of mind.

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.
