Carbon monoxide alarm??!
Question: It wasn't the "normal" alarm sound in the manual that is four short beeps and 5 seconds silence, then four short beeps..etc. It's a nighthawk and it did a sort of chirp, then was silent for about 20 seconds, the reading was 0. SHould we be concerned ?? Or sleep and check it out tommorow??

If the reading is zero then it probably isn't a big deal... but I'd call the fire department (normal number not 911) and see what they think. We had a problem earlier this year because of snow blocking our vents where some carbon monoxide built up in our house. The alarm only chirped once or twice also because only a bit was getting in at a time so it wouldn't really detect it for the most part.
However, it was enough that it built up in our house. We were all fine, but it could have been an issue if we hadn't been checked out.
Change the battery.
Perhaps you need a new battery.
if it says 0. It's probably fine.
i would get a new one
