I have a Safe-T-Alert model 20-441. The green light stays on it chirps every minute or so. I called the company to see if it is outdated; they said it has no problem, but the chirping is driving us crazy. On the front of the Propane Detector, I noted that it said replace July 2010; if I did, would it solve the problem?
2nd question the convection microwave sometimes the micro will not work, if I run the convection oven for 5 minutes then try the micro. It functions where do I look for the problem?
ANSWER: Propane Detectors do wear out and that is why your Propane Detector has a replacement date on it (like the one pictured at the top of this page). Depending on the brand and model of your Propane Detector, it may have a yellow light that comes on when it needs to be replaced or will even say on the detector itself, "Replace 60 months after the retail sale". Not all detectors make it so easy to get the expiration date. In some cases, you have to remove the detector and look at the back of it, and you will find the date that the detector was manufactured.
