Thankfully the noise has stopped. Hopefully it won't start back up again in the middle of the night. |
Sleep with one eye open.

THat may mean that the unit is no longer operational. Get that checked out ASAP! |

even if it does stop that means your detector doesnt work you could die in ur sleep if there's fire. maybe you should just get the landlord to replace the battery or is that too complicated? :rolleyes:
smoke rises so alarms are put highest spot. you could locate it under your bed but you'd probably be dead by the time it went off :rolleyes: |
Thank you for stating the obvious. I didn't ask why they put it on the ceiling. I asked why they put it at the HIGHEST point of my ceiling. My ceiling vaults. In the other parts of my house the detectors are in the middle of the ceiling...not the far edge where it vaults the highest.
I don't have a landloard. I own my own home. There is another smoke detector close to this one located outside in the hallway. I have three upstairs and two downstairs.
:rolleyes: |

| If you can afford a house maybe you can buy a ladder? it makes perfect sense to put the detector in the highest part on the ceiling, because thats where the smoke will go first (am i stating the obvious again?) |

Then why didn't they do that in my office (as already stated before)?
About the ladder...I simply don't own one. I don't have this dying need for a ladder stored in my home. If I need one I can always borrow my father's. Now before you go make some off the wall comment about that please look at the time and you tell me why I didn't call him for something that could wait until the weekend. |

Happened to me last month, the ing thing was in the kitchen and would keep on waking me up. I just pulled it off the ceiling and took the batteries out.
We changed the batteries today :happy2: |

Haven't you got a parked car to run into or something? |

That's the best you can do? What's the matter, you skipped a meal today? |
