Greyman 31,518 Posted July 2 Report Share Posted July 2 Had a bit of black on the ceiling around the chimney so took a small panel out and found the person that had installed the fire originally had to short a flu pipe so just stuck a load of gunk round it which had been leaking for years lucky no one got carbon monoxide poisoning anyways from a little decoration issue I’ve had to strip it all out and do it properly the flu goes through the collar as it should now 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Came down this morning and one of my carbon monoxide sensors was chirping, need replacing. Says don't take it apart so of coarse I did. Lithium battery still reads 3v so its the carbon sensor it self, suppose to have a life of 7 to 10 years. Cheers Arry 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Arry These lithium batteries need a clean and the contacts they are touching with alcohol every now and then I was getting through batteries every month or so on my car fob until I cleaned them problem solved. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There welded end soldered into the circuit board mate. I thought if it was the lithium battery that was flat I would try and charge it. Its a 3v battery and its still holding 3.2v so I recon it the sensor that looks like a battery. So I'm not messing about with that because the sensor cost more than a new unite.
