Hi all,
Wondering if any of you could shed some light on why the smoke alarm in my hallway keeps going off!
Details as follows:
- it’s a FireTek Clipsal 755PSMA installed by the building company when we built the house in 2015. The replace the detector date is 2023
- I’m pretty sure it wired into the mains power
- I’ve dusted it with the vacuum
- I’ve replaced the battery with an energiser 9v (the same that was put in it originally)
- not sure if relevant but it’s about 2m away from our heat pump in our hallway. This has been the set up since the build and we haven’t had any false alarms until now
- this is the smoke alarm near the bedrooms
I’m not sure if I need to get an electrician in to replace it and if so, what do I replace it with?
Any advice would be much appreciated. We’ve had to sort of deactivate it as it went off once when we weren’t home and our neighbours called the police to check our property as we have had a spate of burglaries in the neighbourhood - don’t want to be a bother again so I need to get this fixed ASAP!
Thanks all
