Smoke detector keeps beeping.

A Firex G-6 smoke detector can keep beeping due to the following reasons:

1. Age of the Alarm: If the detector is 10 years old or more, it should be replaced. The date code on the back shows its age.

2. Battery Backup: Even if the alarm is hardwired and power is off, it may still beep due to a backup battery in the ceiling mount or the unit itself.

3. Dirty Sensor: Dust or debris in the smoke chamber can cause intermittent beeping. Cleaning the unit may help.

4. Test Failure: If the push-to-test button does not work properly, the unit may be faulty and require replacement.

5. Malfunction: A defect in the unit can cause continuous or intermittent beeping. In such cases, it should be repaired or replaced under warranty if within five years of purchase.

To reset the Firex G-6 smoke alarm that continues to beep without smoke or fire present, try the following steps:

1. Check the Battery: If the LED blinks and the alarm beeps every 60 seconds, the battery is low. Replace it immediately.
2. Power Reset: Turn off the AC power to the smoke alarm at the circuit breaker, then turn it back on after a few minutes.
3. Press the Test Button: Hold the test button for at least five (5) seconds to reset the alarm.
4. Clean the Alarm: Dust, smoke, or water vapor may cause false alarms. Clean the smoke alarm with a vacuum or a dry cloth.
5. Relocate or Replace: If false alarms continue, consider moving the alarm to a different location or replacing it with a Firex GC model with False Alarm Control.

If the issue persists and the alarm is old or malfunctioning, replace it immediately.
