How often do you replace your smoke detector. While it is recommended that you replace your smoke detector every 10 years, we think it should be more like every 3-5 years. And certainly, you need to check your batteries because the smoke detector unit only works if it has power. So check the batteries twice per year.

Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors need to be placed somewhere high up above the floor. For instance affixed to the ceiling in the middle of an apartment or landing, perhaps above a doorway. Here are some simple tips that will help minimize the risks associated with fire or carbon monoxide poisoning.
