Everything we need to protect our home was in one box. We got rid of a hodge-podge of smoke alarms from various companies and standardized on the best, according to Consumer Reports.

Smoke detector SA501CN-3ST. Installed 3 of these smoke detectors on 3 different levels of my home. There were metal ducts in the vicinity. All 3 detectors communicate fine, and all 3 alarm when any are tested. I wanted to be able to hear alarms from anywhere in my home, and these detectors make that possible.

February 1, 2016Easy Wireless Interconnected Alarms
The alarms were easy to install and link wirelessly with my bridge units. Casing feels slightly cheap and the mounting screws were hidden in the battery compartment but otherwise a good product.

I ordered 2 - 2 pack wireless smoke alarms. I was a little concerned about getting them all to talk to each other but the instructions were easy to understand and the unites responded just as the instructions said they would. After testing the units and terrifying the dog was pleased that they work exactly as promised. They arrived quickly and in excellent shape!

I easily found the information I needed to make my purchase decision to expand the number of detectors in my house. Ordering was easy and I received the detectors I ordered in just a couple of days. My only complaint is that the detectors are a bit pricey. They were very easy to install and set up.

The product is outstanding. Your installation instructions on the DVD made it a pleasure to install the units. Outstanding visual aid for easy installation.
Other reasons include: It could be a different device or appliance such as a security system, monitor, carbon monoxide alarm, or other device which has a similar low battery or alert signal. Some of the same factors that cause unwanted alarms can cause intermittent alarms: dust and insects in the alarm or power interruptions in hardwired alarms. Improper wiring on AC or AC/DC smoke alarms. AC alarms will chirp every 5 seconds if the interconnect wire is grounded. The orange interconnect wire should NEVER be grounded; it should only be used to interconnect other smoke alarms or compatible devices.
- You may not be holding the test button down long enough. Try holding it down for up to 10 seconds (20 seconds on photoelectric models) .
- Your battery may not be installed properly or snapped all the way in place. Even if the alarm sounded briefly when the battery touched the terminals, you still need to make sure it is snapped securely in place. If the battery is loose, in cannot power the smoke alarm properly. After installing new batteries, be sure to test your smoke detector.
- Your AC power may not be on. AC and AC/DC units will have a power indicator light (red or green) that shines continuously when they are receiving electrical power.
- If you have a 10-Year model, the smoke alarm may not have been properly activated. If the tab broke away before the alarm was activated, you can use a toothpick to move the switch over to test the alarm.
- There may be insufficient battery power, try new batteries.
- Problems with voltage or insufficient electrical power (brown out) may cause a continuous weak sounding alarm. For AC or AC/DC models, temporarily disconnect power at the service panel until the brown out is over. If you do not restore the AC power, your smoke alarms cannot warn you of a fire.
- Incompatible warning device. If an incompatible alarm or auxiliary device is linked into a series of AC or AC/DC smoke alarms it may cause the system inadvertently go off.
- It is possible that your smoke alarm "silence" button was pushed by mistake. The alarm will now "chirp" once a minute for up to 15 minutes before resetting.
- Are you sure it's the smoke alarm? Funny to ask, but other devices have similar low battery chirps or warning tones.
- Your "new" batteries may not be fresh. If batteries are stored, especially in cold areas like refrigerators, they lose their charge more quickly. Always check the freshness date on the package when buying new batteries. Keep plenty of replacement batteries on hand so that you are sure to always be protected by your smoke alarms.
If it's time to replace your alarms, consider the NEW 10-Year Life series and never have to worry about a battery replacement for the life of the alarm.10-Year alarms are available in smoke, carbon monoxide and combination alarms.
