If the building owners come, we don't let them in the apartment. And if they somehow find their way into the apartment, we just make sure they don't look up; wear colourful outfits, do Kim Jong-Un impersonations... whatever keeps them happy.
My landlord allowed me to take it down, but after a while the home security company called them and said they had to put it back up or they wont get any insurance if a fire burns down the house. So they had to put it back it up.
I took all of them down, bar the one in the hall. I done this before tinnitus mind you. My daughter has never liked loud noises. Our landlord never visits so not had any issues.
You can just cut the bottom of a big plastic bottle and cover the detector using some duct tape stuck on the ceiling. That should work. If the inspectors come, just remove the cover.
I don't have one, which is actually against the law, but I can't risk it. Which means I'll not be covered by insurance if a fire were to happen, so I really hope that NEVER happens.
I plan on taking mine out. My landlord doesn't really pop in unexpectedly so that's not an issue. plus, the walls in my building are so thin, that if there were a fire I'd hear my neighbor's alarm go off anyways
Yeah this is clever @Exit and @TheDanishGirl. Problem is the damn thing was still beeping in my hand after I had torn it out of the ceiling, removed the battery, cut the wires and smashed it half to pieces; was f*cking indestructible.
Would be nice if the rest of my electronic appliances worked this well, but then that would mean life not being a sh*t...
