My panel is beeping and flashing Fire Alert-Low Battery.
New to the house with this system.
How can I pinpoint which detector has the low battery? There are many here.
Thanks.
If you have wireless smoke detectors and one has a low battery, that detector would be emitting its own beep intermittently at the sensor.
If none of the sensors themselves are beeping you may instead have a Firefighter EC-FF345 which is used with wired smoke detectors and detects the wired sensor’s siren to trip the panel alarm. There would typically only be one of those since it is used with interconnected wired smoke detectors.
The Firefighter would be installed within 6 inches of one of the smoke detectors.
Found it! Thanks. Does that have a battery in it that needs to be replaced periodically?
Yes, if you have an EC-FF345, the battery would need to be replaced every 3-5 years roughly. This is the standard time-frame for most wireless 345 sensors. The panel will announce when low batteries occur.
