Why is your smoke alarm light solid red not flashing not beeping?
if you take the smoke detector down there should be a list of of light and sound sequences refer to that.
What technology does a photoelectric smoke detector use to detect smoke?

Do I need a battery smoke detector as a backup?
If your home smoke detector is tied into your electricity and is equipped with a battery backup you should not need an additional smoke detector. You should insure that the batteries are charged and that the smoke detector is functioning properly at least once a month if not more often.

What is optical smoke detector?
An optical smoke detector, also known as a photoelectric smoke detector, uses a light source and a light sensor to detect smoke. It works by directing a beam of light into a sensing chamber; when smoke enters the chamber, it scatters the light, triggering the alarm. These detectors are particularly effective at sensing smoldering fires, which produce a lot of smoke before flames are visible. They are commonly used in residential and commercial buildings for fire safety.
What should I do if my smoke detector is indicating a low battery?
If your smoke detector is indicating a low battery, you should replace the battery immediately to ensure that the detector continues to function properly and provide early warning in case of a fire.

When something is hard wired, it is wired directly to the house wire. No cord. You just install the smoke detector like you would a light fixture or an outlet.
How smoke detector work in case of fire?
Smoke Detectors use things called LDR's or Light Dependent Resistors which lose resistance with an increase in natural light. So when there is a fire, smoke blocks out the natural light, alarming the smoke detector with an increase in resistance. Once the smoke is gone the resistance decreases and a current is allowed to flow to shut down the smoke detectors alarm. :)
