My smoke detector is beeping and there isn any fire. Whats wrong?
The detector may be full of dust and lint. Try cleaning it out with a vacuum cleaner. The detector may also sound from triggers other than just smoke. Aerosol products may cause detectors or steam from a shower may also cause a detector to sound. Finally, the battery or detector may be wearing out. The life expectancy of a smoke detector is 7-10 years; it may be time to replace yours.
