When to Replace Smoke Detectors

Smoke detectors don’t last forever, and replacing them at the right time is crucial for your safety. Consider scheduling a smoke detector replacement in Cleveland, OH, when you notice the following:

  • Every 10 Years: The sensors degrade over time, so replace your smoke detectors every decade.
  • If Malfunctioning: If your alarm chirps continuously even after a battery change, it may need replacement.
  • After a Fire Event: Even if the alarm still functions, exposure to smoke and heat can reduce effectiveness.
  • Unresponsive Alarms: If your smoke detector doesn’t respond during a test, it’s time for a new one.
