After a few minutes of the alarm sounding, I’m usually able to get it to go off by running my ceiling fans, opening windows and waving a towel under the alarm itself.
Although there is some smoke rising from the pan, I don’t think it’s an excessive amount. It’s happened now several times in the past month or so.
So do you think it’s the vent, or the smoke alarm (or both).?
Thanks for any advice.

Just move one from another room (they are very similar if not exactly the same ...in the villages homes) and replace it with that one and see if it fixes the issue. FYI If you're coming up on tens years of use it's is time to replace them all the expire and will start beeping to alert you to replace them.
