Why does my fire alarm make weird beeping noice only during NIGHT starting...?

Question

it starts every night at 1 am and almost every minute it makes a weird beep sound, what is this?

Answer 1

dude, someone sold you an alarm clock by mistake, can i have a hit off of that?

Answer 2

sounds like that your fire alarm might need a new battery, that is why there is a weird beeping noise, if you what a good nights' rest take the fire alarm off the wall, that will stop the beeping noise.

Answer 3

Low batteries.  The batteries might be starting to leak.  Change the batteries now!   If this does not fix your problem you might need a new smoke detector.  You probably only hear it at that time because the house is probably quite then.

Answer 4

If it were low batteries, that would be great, but the person said it happens every night at 1am, ...

IDK thats strange...

but normally if it beeps, it means it has to have the batteries changed...

Don't give it anymore attention, change the batteries, and if that doesn't work, smash it, and throw it away... lol

Thats what I would do...

Answer 5

Two possibilities:

- if the alarm is hooked up to the electric mains (as opposed to being battery operated), there could be a power reduction happening every morning at 1 AM. If this is the case, the alarm may be making a low-power beep. Fix this by buying a new alarm that is battery-operated.

- if someone in the house showers before bedtime, the beep could be coming from condensation. Many people prefer to go to bed clean, but the combination of the temperature in the house going down and the humidity going up can cause water to condense inside the alarm, causing the error beep. Fix this by moving the alarm away from the bathroom.

Answer 6

low batteries

Answer 7

is the smoke alarm 110 volt powered, or is it battery powered. Either way it sounds like the 9 volt battery inside is growing weak and needs to be changed. If you have more smoke alarms in the house, you might as well replace them also. when you replace them write the current date on a small piece of paper and place that paper inside the smoke alarm along with the new battery. It helps with knowing the last time a fresh battery was installed.

Try relocating it to another spot.
