Why does my smoke detector keep going off?

I recently moved a TV to a room that has a smoke detector in it. The detector is about 5 feet directly above the TV. When the TV is on for a few hours the detetor will go off for 1 series then stop. There is no smoke or smells. I tryed changing the detectors batteries, but it still does it. Does the TV give off enough heat to cause it to go off? Should I be concerned?Thanks

you want 5 feet on each side of the fire hydrantthe most important thing to remember( fire men know this) leave enough room for emergency vehicles

One woman's trash is another woman's treasure Or in a more descriptive, Jerry Springer-esque manner: Don't mess with my man, b%tch! EDIT: I meant to add that I think it's her choice in the long runand if she wants him and you don't leaver her alone about it, then you're lible to lose her as a friend

The distance to park away from a fire hydrant is usually determined by state or local codes and rules. Some areas may be as little as 5 feet, others it can be up to 10 or 15 feet each direction. As for calling the fire department, most firefighters will not help because code enforcement or traffic enforcment is not with in their job or with in their legal realm. Your best bet would be to talk to either your local code enfocement officer (call city) or local police department (city or county) and they can either deal with it or let you know who is dealing with it. As a firefighter, I see 10 feet as being a reasonable distance from a hydrant, so you might be better to go after them for being a nusance for being in the road.

That distance is determined by municipalities. New York City just extended the distance which has led to more tickets. Mayor Bloomberg said it will help raise revenues and it has. It has also led to lots of people having their cars towed which is a major nuisance.

Call you local police department, I am pretty sure that when they get that ticketthey will figure out another place to park. And if they do keep parking there, keep calling the police department, as fines go up everytime you repeat the offence.
