When Should I Replace My Smoke Detector?

Replacing your smoke detectors is crucial to keeping all the occupants in your home or business safe. Maintaining your devices by keeping them debris- and dust-free can extend their performance, but all smoke detectors should eventually be replaced. The following should be considered when deciding if it’s time for a replacement:

  • If your smoke detectors are more than eight years old, their sensors can become less sensitive and fail to detect smoke.
  • If your smoke detector doesn’t alarm when you press the “test” button, it may be time for a replacement.
  • Most smoke detectors are battery-powered, and the batteries should be replaced yearly. A beeping or chirping sound indicates a low battery. If the beeping persists after you change the batteries, you should consider replacing the device.
  • If your device alarms when there’s no smoke present, it could be a sign of a faulty device. Occasional false alarms are expected due to steam or cooking fumes, but consistent alerts shouldn't be ignored. This is a sign the sensors are becoming less reliable, making it essential to replace your current smoke detector with a new one.
  • As technology advances, consider replacing your current smoke detector with a model that includes features such as wireless connectivity, smart capabilities, and carbon monoxide detection.
  • If you’ve recently renovated your home or business, it’s a good idea to replace your smoke detectors. Construction work can generate dust and debris that can compromise the functionality of your existing devices.
