Smoke Detectors

Again last night, one of our smoke detectors started chirping. This is probably the 2nd or 3rd one this year. I did a quick search on the internet and found this site. They suggest changing the batteries once a year since they will most likely start chirping in the middle of the night when the temperature is cooler. Our smoke detectors have consent power run to them and the battery is just a backup. I am thinking we should change the batteries every 2 years so everyone doesn't get stirred up by the noise. I guess I will be replacing the rest of them today.
