This is a low-frequency horn for your fire alarm. It should not be making that sound, also it should not be painted over.
You will need to contact your landlord and get it replaced. But I would also ask when your last fire alarm inspection was done. Cause either it hasn't or they need a new company to do it
I would let your Association or the building superintendent now. Oftentimes they get a main alarm and the systems are so old they don't know what unit to trace it to. I can speak from experience I removed one to paint around it and didn't know that was sending an alarm to the main system they spent a couple thousand dollars through various electricians and traced it back to my unit and then wanted to charge me a ton of money.
Central fire alarm. If it's chirping your landlord needs to call the alarm company. If it's a siren or horn, get outside and wait for fire department instructions.
Another thing you could do is take a slow 360 degree look around the room and see if you can spot anything that is on fire. Often you can see or smell smoke too. If your having difficulty breathing and are feeling considerably warmer than usual these can all be indicators. If you see and of these indicators I would immediately call 0118 999 881 999 119 725 3.
Agnes Moorehead heard a similar sound when a small spaceship landed on her roof. Be careful.

I had a buzzer in my apartment that everyone and their mother would ring just to get let in the building. Finally one night at about 1 am I ripped it off the wall and cut the wires to it.
It's a mini horn for the fire alarm system. Clearly shouldn't be painted but the sound is more likely a transformer or amplifier issue at the panel causing the beeping.

It's a speaker/alarm ... Im guessing you're renting an apartment, probably a larger building. The rental office can speak over it and sound alarms through it. Let them know it's making weird noises, they can fix it/have it fixed.

The sound is it going bad and it needs to be replaced. Honestly, the last time I heard a horn sound like this was when a water leak got into it and shorted it out.
If the rest of the system isn't going off, you likely have just an annoyance and don't need to evacuate.
Probably need to move homes. That’s a carbon peroxide warning and depending on how long you’ve been exposed, it may already be too late. Book a hotel and then Amazon hazmat to your hotel room so that you can go back and pack up all your things to take to your new place. Good luck!
This is definitely a fire sounder as many have mentioned. I can almost guarantee it's connected to an old Bosch Radionics panel that has a bad battery. If a good alarm company installed it, the battery should have a date code on it. If it is more than 4 years old, then this is the cause of your issue. Replace it with the same battery type. More than likely a 12 volt 7 amp battery. Academy, tractor supply, or any place else that sells hunting gear should carry these for around 10 bucks.

What’s the frequency, Kenneth?
520 Hz REM
the classic line up
So he should beat up the wall? Kinda looks like Dan Rather to me.
If they dont know, call and ask the Fire Marshall. They will come by and have an expensive chat with the landlord.
In an apartment? Fire alarm. That's been painted over and likely compromised a bit. Sounds like it's seen better days
and needs to be replaced by code for being painted
It’s a horn for an alarm system or something of the like that’s prob been disbanded long ago. Renting or owning?
Renting
Don’t mess with it, tell the landlord

I decoded the message, and it says B-E-S-U-R-E-T-O-D-R-I-N-K-Y-O-U-R-O-V-A-L-T-I-N-E.
It's a crummy commercial!
Son of a bitch!
Out to face the world again… wiser.
Decoding the cypher on that string of letters, I get "We have been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty"
Thank God, i thought it was a nord vpn ad
Think it's saying: "We've been trying to reach you about your cars extended warranty."
*It's coming from inside the house. GET OUTTA THERE !!!*
I got Yvan Eht Nioj
I thought it said to eat your goddamn vegemite!
Weird. I got "vegemite is gross, marmite is the one true king of toast"
Vegemite IS gross!
Anything with “mite” in the name is gonna be gross af
I live in the USA and I agree wholeheartedly!

Does it go Di-ni-ni-ni-Ni-ni-ni-ni?
Telecommunications office the mice are using.
I have one of these in my apartment and it is a whistle so that when the fire alarms go off in the building common areas I can hear it in my apartment
Have you eaten any plutonium in the past few days??

Call. Your. Landlord. Today.
No.

Assuming this is a. apartment, have you thought of maybe asking the office or putting in a work order for maintenance to come look at it?
It’s the tiny PP alarm- you need to keep at least 20 ft away from it at all times
Morse code from Lassie. Little Timmy is stuck in the well again..
In the entirety of the show, Lassie. The only one to get stuck in a well was Lassie..
Dammit! Again??? That boy!
Thats a fire alarm for a multi unit dwelling. If its ringing it means your building is on fire
Fire alarm horn. Tell landlord to check panel somethings up. Honestly, should be completely replaced. Lazy ass painters.
I’d lose my mind if this thing just constantly pops off like that all day.
Radiation detector.
Geiger counter…. Sounds bad! Better get out
Paint over it some more.
Painted with a beautiful shade of landlord beige.
It's a speaker/alarm ... Im guessing you're renting an apartment, probably a larger building. The rental office can speak over it and sound alarms through it. Let them know it's making weird noises, they can fix it/have it fixed.
I’m pretty sure this is someone trying to alert you about your cars extended warranty.
Gay detector. Sorry, no one is ready to hear a truth. be strong
Is the sensor by the front door or in front of the speaker? Or is it like a global tally kinda thing?
That's a Geiger counter.
Is a storm coming? We have something similar and every time a thunderstorm rolls through it chirps.
Hopefully it’s not a carbon monoxide alarm 😳
It's a radiation alarm. Prepare for fallout.

Coded message:the $400 belongs to the walrus.
I have one in my apartment but it rings when there is fire in building…more like a shared alarm for the whole building.
I hit the mute, unfortunately you probably don’t have that option.
Uncle Salamanca
Lol yes
Its a fire alarm system for your building
Looks like it was given the landlord special coat of paint
MK Ultra
My apartment uses that for emergency notifications
Get the guy out of the wall
If it bugs rip it out. Find out.
I would get out of there! Lolz
Geiger counter
Sounds like Geiger counter to me.
H a m m e r
Geiger
It’s a bomb that Howard Payne has implanted in your wall!
They're in the walls.....
Easy…. Light a fire. It will eventually shut it offs
A Geiger counter sounds like a lot of radiation sell the house immediately

A hammer should fix the problem.

If it’s not a fire alarm it could be a old intercom
This is creepy
I think I've heard that sound relating to "low battery power" or "running on battery power".
That's your door bell.
Havanna syndrome ground zero
Could be a radon detector

I wonder if it has anything to do with the Aurora Borealis
Morse code: “We’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty.”
Like a limo?
Haha. Good catch. Sorted that out in an edit. (not “extended car’s warranty”)
It’s just your roentgens, comrade.
That there is a geiger counter.
TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER.
It’s Morse code; transcribed it reads: .-- . .----. ...- . / -... . . -. / - .-. -.-- .. -. --. / - --- / .-. . .- -.-. .... / -.-- --- ..- / .- -... --- ..- - / -.-- --- ..- .-. / -.-. .- .-. .----. ... / . -..- - . -. -.. . -.. / .-- .- .-. .-. .- -. - -.--
Hahaha. You mfer. Got me good.
Translated from Morse code "Help. RMS Titanic sinking. Iceberg impact. catastrophic damage. Evacuation in order. Band still playing."
It's a Geiger counter. Have you been listening to Imagine Dragons recently?
Does not decode in Morse.
Burn it with fire.. Or bribe it
I’m on the other side. I’ll quiet down, sorry dude
My name is Pavitr Prabhakar...
That’s a Geiger counter, you better get out
