Question:

Will shower steam trigger smoke alarm?

My smoke alarm is outside my bathroom door and tonight when I stepped out the alarm went off. This has never happened before and I had the bathroom door open while I showered and the second I opened the curtain it went off. There was no smoke in the house so I'm confused.

Answer:

Tell her what you said here. If you each have your own, you can show together. You might want different colors too.
make sure the hole is free from dust, use a wet brush to clean it use clean water and a clean container probabley a cup full of water then add a hand full of powder, mix until its like play doe
Only in public housing.If you are in a privately owned apartment (as opposed to government owned) this is not a problem. Buy yourself a new one if you want, they are not expensive.
