BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! Your smoke alarm is going off, but there is a good news. There's no fire! How could this be? Here is a list of some of the different things that may cause a "false alarm."
◯ Burning Food
◯ Candle, Cigarette, or Incense smoke

A false alarm may be startling and inconvenient, but it is not nearly as bad as a smoke alarm that does not go off when there is a fire. Please do not remove smoke alarms without replacing them. If you experience a false alarm, you can call your local fire department and request that they come out to access the situation. Remember that it is always best to be safe than sorry.
