Please tell me what to read about #fire #FireSafety #FireAlarms
I have fire alarms wired into the ceiling and wired together. Great if there is ever a fire, but for nuisance alarms, the one malfunctioning alarm makes them all start sound, but they have to be silenced individually. That means hauling a ladder up multiple flights of stairs, while the alarms are shrieking.
Why do #FireAlarms choose to tell you that the battery is running low in the middle of the night? I can’t recall one ever commence it’s beeping during the day.
Also why is this battery decline aligned with my first quiet weekend in ages disrupting a good night’s sleep and a lie in? Proof of practical joker deity?
Picture middle of the night bleary-eyed standing on a chair while my normally light-sleeping partner oblivious.
