Hey its Da
about a month ago 2 of my carbon monoxide detectors went of during the middle of the night, but my parents did nothing about it because they said that the detectors were cheap. So about about 2 weeks later i encouraged them to buy better detectors. So my parents bought 2 of the most expensive detectors they could buy. but to be surprised over the night after they were plugged in and everything they both went of and once again my parents think its just a coincidence. i think in total its been like 6 or 7 times they have gone off what should i do or who should i call
i appreciate any help

Usually you can call your local Fire Station..use thier NON EMERGENCY phone number..and they will come out and check this for you with thier meters..call them and see..and if you have gas in your house for heat/cooking etc..the local gas company may also come out for free and test the air..They usually will when it concerns carbon monoxide and they have thier service there

Why is my carbon monoxide detector chirping?
John
Started Monday night at around 4am. Not an 'alarm,' but just a chirp as though the batteries were low. I hit the reset button and it stopped immediately. Same thing happened Tuesday night. Hit reset, stopped doing it.
Yesterday it started chirping in the middle of the afternoon, so I installed a new 9v battery, thinking that it must be low. Apparently that wasn't the problem, though, because it started chirping again this morning.
Does anyone have any ideas?
*edit: I replaced the battery yesterday with a new one, assuming the battery was the problem and that it would fix it.

Hi John, Iâm Ken with The Home Depot and have had this question before. Since you have replaced the old battery with a new one and that is not problem, your unit is probably ready to be replaced.
Some manufactures say to replace your alarm every 5 to 7 years. This is to benefit from new technology.
So I would check the age of your alarm and if it is within this time frame I would consider getting a new one. Having a proper working carbon monoxide alarm is very important. Hope this helps.
