Your safety is our highest priority at Vidle Housing. If a smoke or carbon monoxide (CO) detector is beeping, chirping, or missing entirely, please follow these steps:
🚨 Step 1: Assess the Situation
Let us know:
Which alarm is affected (smoke or carbon monoxide)?
Where it’s located in the unit?
Is it beeping continuously, chirping intermittently, or missing altogether?
🏃 Step 2: Exit if Unsafe
If you smell smoke, gas, or feel unsafe in any way, exit the unit immediately and call local emergency services.
📞 Step 3: We’ll Contact the Host Immediately
We’ll notify the host right away and request urgent servicing or battery replacement. A working alarm is required by platform standards.
🛏️ Step 4: Alternative Arrangements if Needed
If safety cannot be confirmed quickly, we’ll assist with relocation or temporary arrangements.
