    Smoke Alarms
    I have the model 1275 smoke alarms installed in some rental units. I have a total of 24 installed. The local code calls for these to all be connected to one circuit breaker and be interconnected. I am having a problem with nuisance soundings. I installed a relay, it worked for about 2 years, now I am having nuisance soundings again. I have tried everything I can think of to stop these nuisance soundings. Anyone have any ideas what to do? I have contacted Kiddie Frenetics to no avail. I thought they would be more interested in a customer having a problem with their product.

    The red Led should indicate the initiating detector.

    It is possible it is detecting smoke from within a unit.

Smoke Alarms [ 2 Answers ]

What would cause all of your smoke alarms to go off at the same time if there is clearly smoke to be detected? They all shut off after approximately 10 minutes.:confused:
