Saltbox Pantry Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I think it might be your fire alarm low on batteries, which sounds very much like the a carbon detector...ask me how I know after calling the fire station in a panic, in the middle of the night.They did all the testing and couldn't find any trace of carbon so they left. A few minutes later I heard it again my husband was standing by the fire alarm as it made this sound and he starts laughing.....I felt like an idiot but the fire fighter's made up for it...hubba hubba:drool: You should get it checked to be on the safe side.SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandmaskitchen Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 My carbon monoxide detector is just a few feet from my kitchen where I make my candles, and I've never had any problems with it going off. Check the batteries in all your detectors to be on the safe side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
