I have had this alarm hard-wired throughout my new construction. I have had several problems with false alarms in the middle of the night. I found out that bugs were getting into the one in my garage and changing the ionization of the air, resulting in many false alarms at 2 and 3 AM. I fixed that by buying a few night-lights and keeping them in the garage, so the insects would be attracted there instead of the little green light on the alarm. Periodically I still have problems with them going off, and this morning was no exception. When I tried to "hush" the alarm today, I found that the button no longer functioned on the unit, which has only been installed for about 8 months now. I am changing these out for photoelectric sensing alarms instead, as I am extremely disappointed in the performance of such an integral part of my new house.
