Propane alarm

[queenfang]

My propane alarm went off. I did not smell any propane, the windows were open, the fan was on. The red light was not on. Why did the alarm go off? I turned off the propane at the tank just to be safe.

Had you just recently used any kind of aerosol spray (hair spray, ant spray, deodorant, etc)?

Check the battery voltage. Your profile shows a 2009 camper. If it is the original battery, it could have been a low voltage alarm. Also check the expiration date on the back of the unit. The sensor has a fixed life span and the unit may need to be replaced.

Yup, battery. I just did it. Didn't plug my camper in for 5 days and battery drained down enough to set off alarm. .

This recent thread also has some good info in it, with some things to possibly check.

I've replaced far too many of these alarms. Finally
figured out how sensitive they are to things like hairspray, the swiffer floor mop spray, etc.
