    Hi @BigTSoFlo. You can try changing the batteries as @SolarEclipse suggested, or cleaning the First Alert with a dry washcloth to ensure it is free of any dirt or debris that may be impacting its performance. However, I would still recommend following up with First Alert's support team directly given that you have had false alarms. You can reach out to First Alert directly at 800-323-9005, and you can find their help center [here](https://support.firstalert.com/s/).
