I'm just curious. Our first home was new construction and I feel like we had smoke alarms everywhere. We now live in a 100 year old home which we have renovated but never changed the smoke alarm situation. There is one on each level, and quite honestly I don't even know if they work! I'm having a baby very soon and have been telling my husband to please install the smoke alarms around the house. How many should we have and in what locations? Currently there is one in the upstairs hallway (this is a new one), an old one in the attic, and then an old one at the top of basement stairs.
The color of happiness. Obviously.
i /terrilenae).. keep in mind if you have stock suspension then yours will be higher than mine. front lips look hott, but they're a lotta trouble when it comes to speed bumps. you better be able to hit 'em sideways and go real slow or not go over them at all.
We typically have a false alarms once or twice a year usually involving cooking at dinner time. It can be common in apartment buildings although usually residents are too embarrassed to do it often. It is suspicious that your alarms go off in cold weather. Do bars close at 1:00 AM in your area? It could be drunk people coming home to smoke in the hallways outside the weather. It could be a drunk, disabled, or elderly person cooking poorly. It could be someone using a space heater because their gas/electricity was shut off. It also could be malfunction caused by extreme weather conditions. It doesn't take much moisture or humidity to trip a poorly insulated alarm pull station or worn-out smoke detector. Our fire department requires our alarms to be tested annually (actually they may have just changed it to every six months) although they only inspect records every two years. It is annoying, but it's better to know your fire system is oversensitive and operational instead of disabled.
