Smoke alarms produce different beep patterns to indicate issues: rapid beeps often mean low or dead batteries; two beeps can signal battery or wiring faults; three beeps indicate smoke/fire; four beeps often indicate carbon monoxide or a dying battery cycling; five beeps in a minute may mean the detector expired. Causes include dust, humidity, steam, temperature swings, error codes, old/failed units, or real fire. Fixes include replacing batteries, cleaning, resetting error logs, relocating units, or cutting power for hardwired alarms; replace expired detectors and evacuate if fire is detected.
