Common Smoke Alarm Emergencies
Not all smoke alarm issues can wait until morning. Some demand immediate attention due to their potential safety hazards.Here are a few situations that require an emergency engineer:
1. Alarm Won’t Stop Beeping
Continuous beeping can signal a fault or battery issue. If replacing the battery doesn’t help, an engineer can diagnose internal faults quickly
2. Smoke Alarm Not Detecting Smoke
A non-functioning alarm in a smoke-filled environment is life-threatening. Immediate servicing is critical.
3. False Alarms at Random Hours
Sudden and frequent false alarms may indicate dust in the sensors, expired units, or electrical faults.
4. Interconnected System Malfunctions
In commercial properties or flats with interconnected smoke alarms, a fault in one unit can affect the whole system.
5. Post-Fire Incidents
If your property recently experienced smoke or fire, alarms need testing, recalibration, or replacement immediately.
