I recently tested my dual "kiddie" carbon monoxide / smoke alarm and after the test I got 3 more beeps informing me of carbon monoxide 3 seconds after the fire and CO test beeps. So I tested it again and I got the same 3 carbon monoxide beeps 3 seconds after the test and then nothing but the green "hush" mode light.. I wanted to know if this means there is carbon monoxide in my house? This only occurs when I hold the dual alarm in the air around my indoor gas air heater/cooler thing-when it's running.- Should I be worried because I never get carbon monoxide warnings otherwise. Why am I getting three additional beeps and a warning for carbon monoxide after the initial test beeps....

Carbon monoxide is heavier than air,and will normally be raised by the heat of an appliance and then fall,which would set off any detector.If the alarm is not activating on its own,then there shouldn't be a problem.

Brand New Carbon Monoxide alarm beeping randomly?

I just had my heater fixed and the guy gave me a free CO detector, but about three days later it started beeping randomly. i thought it was signaling carbon monoxide so i got out of the house and let it air out but the alarm stopped pretty quickly anyway. But two days after that i had an actual carbon monoxide problem from a car, and the beep it does for that is different. When it goes off randomly (which it does almost every day) it beeps once, waits about thirty seconds, then beeps again. I can press the reset button and after a little fiddling it will stop. I dont know why it would be doing that if it is brand new and just installed.

Could be one of a few different problems, depending of what kind of CO Detector you received. Some detectors just plug into a standard electrical outlet (with a battery back-up). Another kind is just battery operated. The third kind would be hooked up to a household alarm system (I doubt this is the case since you received the detector from a furnace repair company). I would first replace the battery (usually it is a 9 volt style). If that does not fix the problem, call the company that gave you the detector, advise them that the unit appears to be faulty, and ask them to replace it (at their cost for giving you a faulty item).
