It’s 4:45AM. You hear a strange beep. At first you think you must be dreaming. Nope. There it is again. You turn on the light and begin fumbling around the house. You wander through the dark searching for the sound the way a trained police dog searches for suspects. The problem is you seem to be chasing an entire team and not just an individual. One by one by one by one you pull down smoke detectors searching for the culprit. 6⁄7 down. The last suspect — mounted to the ceiling… 22 feet in the air. Impossible with the ladders I own. You try pushing the reset /silence button with a makeshift stick. SUCESS! You push the button. Does the beeping stop? No. You throw the breaker for the smoke detectors… No luck. The beeping continues on. The smoke detector must be possessed. There’s no other explanation. Now you’ve begun to grown accustomed to the cadence of the beeping. Is this the new household normal? Will this forever be the soundtrack of our lives? I leave for work. The wife remains home. She calls and calls — resource after resource. I, from work, am given ABC Fire as a recommendation from a coworker. She calls. They answer. She explains the situation — frantic, exhausted and overwhelmed. They call a technician and he, Brian, calls my wife back. They speak. I’m quite sure Brian heard the sheer desperation in her voice. He is there within a few hours. Almost 12 hours later, the home is silent again. We have 7 new smoke detectors(education point — the entire unit should be completely replaced every 10 years). We will never know why our smoke detector went crazy but ABC Fire saved the day… and maybe someday our lives by having these new detectors installed. They were fast, upfront about pricing, efficient and well, super heroes to my wife. They saved our ears and sanity. This is exactly what a company should strive to replicate. Thank you ABC Fire and Brian for all your help!
