jumbles Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 our alarm has gone off the past 2 nights, and it appears each time to be one area which has a PIR unit and a contact unit on a bathroom window, it dosent go off during the day but 2 times sun night and once last night- we ended up leaving alarm off, we have checked for spiders webs, cleaned them off, ( and time goes off is different and could be 5 hours after setting ) so think possibly spider in unit? thanks for any help Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/20043-alarm-going-off-no-apparent-reason/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjay Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 ohh 4.41 is a bad time to be woken by your alarm - you have my sympathy lolcould well be spiders ( a quick spray with a can of fly killer may help ) and it could be a bad battery if it goes round the 2.30 - 3.00 am mark if you dont already have the system on a maintainance scheme that would be my advice at this time Angus I'm confused. Why would a bad battery cause the alarm to go off round the 2.30 - 3.00 am mark?

alterEGO Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I'm confused. Why would a bad battery cause the alarm to go off round the 2.30 - 3.00 am mark? don't ask. do you have a shower in the bathroom? if so have a look at the contact, as it could have moisture ingress problems.
