Water damage in a smoke detector can be caused by exposure to high humidity, leaks from Plumbing, or water intrusion during events like flooding or heavy rain. Additionally, if the detector is located near areas prone to condensation, such as kitchens or bathrooms, moisture can accumulate and affect its functionality. This damage can lead to corrosion of internal components, causing the detector to malfunction or fail to alert occupants to smoke or fire. Regular maintenance and proper placement can help mitigate these risks.
