GSE recommends replacing standard removable batteries and hardwired alarm backup batteries every six months. Follow the manufacturer instructions for sealed battery alarms.
Replace smoke alarms 10 years after the manufacture date. Carbon monoxide alarm life varies, so replace each unit when its end of life signal sounds or when the manufacturer directs.
A licensed electrician can evaluate hardwired power, battery backup, interconnection, alarm condition, and any electrical repairs that may be needed.
A chirp can mean a low battery, an expired alarm, an end of life signal, a power issue, or a failed device. A licensed electrician can identify what the system needs and whether the alarms are receiving power and communicating as intended.
Applicable requirements and manufacturer instructions depend on the home, equipment, and local authority having jurisdiction. We provide clear recommendations before completing repairs.
