Signs of Trouble

How do you know it is time for a smoke detector replacement or smoke detector repair in Montgomery? The general rule of thumb is to have the smoke detector replaced every eight to ten years, but there are other clues to look for. Here are some signs that it is time for a replacement:

• Yellowed Smoke Detector: Most smoke detectors contain bromine, a flame retardant. This bromine can cause smoke detectors to turn yellow when exposed to heat, oxygen, and UV light for a long time.
• Chirping Sounds: This one is hard to miss. Simply changing the battery might resolve a chirping smoke detector, but if not, then get the unit replaced.
• Failed Tests: Smoke detectors have a "test" button that should cause several beeps when pressed. Test your smoke detector once a month to make sure it is working. Replace if not.
