If you have a smoke detector that is beeping, the first thing you want to do is change the battery. If the smoke detector keeps beeping, it is either an internal malfunction or at the end of its life.
You should replace the smoke detector every ten years.
On some models the smoke detector will chirp when you use the hush feature. 
If you have a wireless smoke alarm, beeping can be caused by interference from another wireless system.
