What Is My Smoke Alarm Sounding?
A smoke detector is one of the most vital safety devices in any home—but only if it’s working properly! Unfortunately, many homeowners forget to check their smoke detectors regularly, which can lead to dangerous situations. Here’s what you need to know to keep your smoke detectors in top shape and ensure your family’s safety.
What Triggers a Smoke Detector?
Your smoke detector will sound an alarm when it detects any of the following: ✅ An actual fire – The primary purpose of your smoke detector! ✅ Smoke, steam, or dirt – These particles can trigger false alarms ✅ Low or dead battery – Batteries expire and should be replaced annually ✅ Dust and debris buildup – Arizona’s dust can clog your detector ✅ Old age – Smoke detectors have a lifespan of 8-10 years
Smoke Detector Maintenance Tips
Change batteries every year – Don’t wait for the annoying chirping sound! Clean your detectors regularly – Use compressed air or a vacuum to remove dust. Replace detectors every 8-10 years – Check the manufacture date on the back. Test alarms monthly – Press the test button to ensure it’s working properly. Replace all units at the same time – Don’t stagger maintenance; do it all at once.
