Carbon monoxide detector beeping windows#
We're not sick, and just in case we're keeping our windows open. We had to unhook the thing because it won't stop beeping. The funny thing was, after we installed the carbon monoxide detector it started beeping almost immediately, prompting my friend to think we were all going to die. So we never really worried about having a carbon monoxide detector before. We have always had homes where all of our appliances and whatnot run off of electricity. We recently moved into a home with a gas powered furnace and are concerned about using it during the wintertime. Has anyone ever known someone how has suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning? I'm not sure if the carpet cleaning actually created an unsafe level of carbon monoxide-probably not, I guess-or if something about the carpet cleaning caused it to malfunction. When I got back, the carbon monoxide detector was going off and the poor cat was howling! The noise was really getting to her. I once shut my cat in a bathroom (with her food and water and a pillow and whatnot she was quite comfy) and left the house while my carpets were being cleaned. Quick tip: Disconnect/remove batteries from/generally disable your carbon monoxide alarm if you're having your carpets cleaned.
That is, if he wasn't taking a carbon monoxide induced nap. Then when the whole shebang blew up he would have toasted marshmallows and weenies over the flames, I’m sure. My husband, fruit loop that he is, would have let it go. What, with all of the campfires and such that you’ve got going on a camping trip! I stand by my decision to push on getting that fixed immediately. However, I pushed my husband (who was quite content continually opening the door – goober) to check into the gas. This happened several times and I figured that opening the door was letting out the harmful substance because it was such a small space. The thing started going crazy, we opened the door and it stopped. And I’m glad that we do, because it wasn’t very long ago that that is how we discovered a malfunction in our gas line. I don’t think it’s quite as dangerous, but we also keep a carbon monoxide detector in our camper. It is located right next to the gas furnace, so my guess is that the cleaning solutions, which have a strong odor, triggered the alarm. Took it back in the house and - so far so good - no beeping. I opened the doors, took the alarm outside and it eventually stopped. When we got home, the carbon monoxide detector was beeping. Just had carpets cleaned and we left the house for an couple of hours. I think I have a faulty carbon monoxide alarm and I'm feezing, waiting for a gas man to come. I phoned the gas company and they have now turned off my gas and said I have to get all the gas lines checked. It shows a 0 on left side but flashes a 97. It's been doing it for the last 10 hours, and I'm still alive. My alarm won't stop beeping no matter what. Is this something that I need to be worried about? I have turned off my central unit and using space heaters and even open the doors for a few minutes and detector is still beeping. Well now, the order is so much worse and my detector has been beeping all morning. He said that when we had the unit serviced for the winter he was told because it's such an old unit (20 years old) it would need to eventually be replaced and we would know when the time comes for the replacement. My husband said it is coming from our heating unit. She had no idea anything was wrong, but was very tired anytime she was home. Please help!Ī sign that there is a carbon monoxide problem is being overly tired. How do I change the batteries for this thing? It keeps beeping no matter what and I can't find where the batteries are located at, (etc. No beeping, so I'm thinking that the detector is old and needs replacement. I followed the sound to our battery-operated carbon monoxide detector. I heard a low-grade continuous whine coming from somewhere in our basement. I scraped the contacts clean and replaced the batteries.
One of the batteries had sprung a leak and the corrosion caused the issue. I had the previous post about the low-grade whine from my CO Detector. And follow the instructions on carbon monoxide beeping.
