Hey guys. I've been having some trouble with a Kidde smoke/Co alarm I've recently bought for my room. I am in the unenviable position of living with a hot water boiler in my wardrobe so I thought that whilst i was going to buy a smoke alarm anyway, I may as well get one that does CO as well - so I bought the Kidde one.
However, the alarm has started going off around early-mid morning every day. There's no audio warning; there is simply just a long beep, followed by a shorter beep then a pause. It does this over and over until I get fed up of it and takes the batteries out. Having read the operating instructions, it mentions that the alarm cannot operate below
4=2E4=B0C. Since the time of day that this happens is probably when my room is coldest and that since my room is on an outside wall and in the North East of England, it seems that going below this temperature is probably what is setting the alarm off.Since I'm planning to take this alarm back (but still keen to have a CO/smoke alarm) does anyone know of an alternative CO alarm that I could get? Even better would be another combined smoke/CO detector so I don't need to buy two.
Kind Regards,
Matt
